Join us on Thanksgiving Day at 8AM for the 13th annual University City Turkey Trot!! A huge thanks to all the participants who have supported this awesome community race through the years! Join fellow runners, walkers, and our fans on Thanksgiving Day for a 5k walk/run designed for all of University City to enjoy! After the race, cool down and indulge in a post-race mini feast featuring food, drinks, games and music.
The University City Turkey Trot features a 5k run/walk; a fun run for kids of all ages; and a costume contest for all those young at heart. Prizes are awarded for first, second, and third place finishers overall; first and second place male and female in each age category; and three prizes are awarded for the costume contest. In addition to all that fun, participants are encouraged to take part in our annual food drive by bringing non-perishable items to support those who are less fortunate in our community.
Our awesome turkey tee shirt is always a hit! Please register ea
