Organiser's Description
The Twelfth Annual Mercer County Turkey Trot -- a 5K race and 1 mile fun run/walk -- will take place on Thanksgiving Day. We look forward to making this event the most successful one yet! The proceeds from the Race support our local food banks and pantries.
EVENT INFO The 5K course is certified by USA Track & Field (click here for a map of the race course). The course is paved. The race is open to runners, families, and strollers. No dogs allowed. We will put the serious, faster runners in the front, and we will stage the runners by approximate run times. 1 Mile Walk/Fun Run. The walk/fun run follows a portion of the 5K course. This event is open to runners, families, and stroller. No dogs allowed. No chip is worn, so no time is registered for the fun run/walk. Please note we will start this event at 8:45am.
