From the Organizer
Welcome back to the D&I Fitness Annual Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning. We are so excited to be back on for 2025! Run the 5k or walk the 2 mile loop, either way, join us in this fun family event! We will be starting/finishing in front of D&I Fitness which is located at 9 W. South Orange Ave in South Orange, NJ. A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to the MEND, a non profit organization that strengthens and supports its food pantry network by providing supplemental fresh and healthy food, funds, volunteers, and a monthly forum for collaboration.
Please consider dropping off peanut butter, tuna (in water), shelf stable milk, cereal, rice or dry beans at our gym during the month of November or bring on race day.
