Event summary

Join us for the exciting CHHOP's Turkey Trot and One Mile Race on Saturday, November 23rd, 2024, in the vibrant downtown of Peekskill, Westchester! This annual event is a wonderful opportunity to give back to the community while enjoying a fun-filled day of running. The festivities kick off at 9 AM at the Gazebo, where participants can choose between two engaging activities: the timed One Mile Race or the untimed Turkey Trot.

The One Mile Race invites you to challenge yourself on a full mile loop, with awards for top finishers, while the Turkey Trot allows you to jog at your own paceโ€”just remember to bring a frozen turkey to donate, as thatโ€™s the heart of this event! Adults can join for a nominal fee of $20, while those 18 and under can participate for free. With a focus on caring for the hungry and homeless in Peekskill, this event promises to be both rewarding and enjoyable. Mark your calendars and get ready to run for a great cause!

Organiser's Description

Please realize this is a one mile race-to be run, not walked. If you don't want to run, sign up for the Trot HERE [https://www.chhop.org/turkeytrot].

CHHOP- Caring for the Hungry and Homeless of Peekskill continues their annual Turkey Trot with the addition of this one mile race starting at 9AM at the Gazebo in downtown Peekskill.

When this run started, you ran with a frozen turkey and donated it at the end of the race. Lately, more people drop the turkey near the start and then run the race. It has been less than a mile and not timed.

But this year we are adding a timed mile with awards. Racers will start first and run a full mile-it's basically a loop plus an out and back. The 'trotters' will do the loop and can then run through the finish, but not be timed. You can sign up for the untimed run by clicking HERE [https://www.chhop.org/turkeytrot].

There will be a $20 fee for adults, while 18 and under run free. Donating a frozen turkey is still the main idea of this day, so please bring one.

Race day registration will be limited.
