First Coast Turkey Trot

The First Coast Turkey Trot in Ponte Vedra Beach is a festive running event held on Thanksgiving morning. Participants can choose from a Turkey Trot 5K, a 1-mile fun run, and free races for kids aged 10 and under, with limited spots available. The event takes place at Mickler's Landing Beachfront Park, where all finishers receive a medal, and paid participants get a technical T-shirt.

The race is professionally timed, and awards are given based on age and gender categories. This community event encourages exercise and camaraderie before the holiday festivities. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
