START THANKSGIVING DAY WITH THE TURKEY TROT 5K

The third annual Southernmost Turkey Trot takes place Thanksgiving morning. CONTRIBUTED

The third annual Southernmost Turkey Trot will be held on Thanksgiving morning, Nov. 27 in Key West. With over 1,500 participants, the 5K run/walk and 1-mile Rooster Romp kick off at 8 a.m. from the Southernmost Point Buoy, and finish in the same spot. 

Each runner will receive a soft race T-shirt (adult and youth sizes available), a finisher medal, and, for those 21 and older, a free mimosa at the post-race mimosa bar. Participants can snap a photo with the event’s mascot, “Dash,” and celebrate their finish at the Southernmost Point Bar. 

The event is open to all ages, with children 4 and under participating for free. Military members can use code HERO for a 10% discount on registration.

The Southernmost Turkey Trot isn’t just about fun and fitness; it’s about giving back. A portion of proceeds will benefit Reef Relief, supporting coral reef conservation efforts in the Florida Keys.

For those who are hungry for more, there is the Double Trot, featuring two 5K races in two days. Register for this race and Hog’s Breaths Hog Trot and earn a free pint glass. More information is at SouthernmostTurkeyTrot.com.
