📣 BIG NEWS: The Turkey Trot Is Leveling Up!
The St. Pete Running Company's Unofficial Turkey Trot is officially becoming the St. Pete Running Company Thanksgiving 5K — and it's going official! This year, we're proud to be a permitted race with Pinellas County, which means a safer, more organized, and all-around elevated experience for everyone.
Same Thanksgiving-morning tradition you love — same trail, same community, same gratitude before the feast. Now with the polish and structure of a fully permitted event, this is our biggest and best Thanksgiving 5K yet.
