Event summary

Join us for the 2025 Kent Turkey Trot on Thursday, November 27th, a delightful family event that brings the community together for a morning of fun, fitness, and Thanksgiving spirit in beautiful Kent, Portage. The festivities kick off with a Fun Run/Walk at 9:00 AM, featuring a shorter distance of less than 800 meters, perfect for participants of all ages. Following that, the 5K Run/Walk begins at 9:15 AM, allowing runners and walkers to enjoy the scenic routes while burning off those pre-Thanksgiving calories.

Make sure to register early, as last year's event sold out! Participants will have the chance to pick up their race packets and register on the day before the event, November 26th, from 3 PM to 6 PM at Kent Park and Rec, or on race day from 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM. The first 700 pre-registered participants will receive a cozy fleece blanket or soft crew sweatshirt, and all Fun Run participants will get a commemorative T-shirt. With age group awards and medals for the top three overall male and female finishers, plus ribbons for all Fun Run participants, it's a day full of excitement
