Teddy Bear Trot is a running race on November 28, 2026 in Tucson, AZ, with an entry fee of $10.
Join Fleet Feet Tucson for a casual run/walk for the whole family in support of the Children's Advocacy Center of Southern Arizona.
Instead of a traditional turkey trot, Fleet Feet Tucson is hosting a Teddy Bear Trot this Thanksgiving weekend benefitting the Children's Advocacy Center of Southern Arizona. We're partnering with Fleet Feet's exclusive shoe brand, Karhu (which happens to mean "bear" in Finnish), for this fun event for the whole family. All proceeds benefit the Children's Advocacy Center. Kids 12 and under can participate for free! We do need registrations for them, however.
This is a casual, non-competitive 1-3mile run/walk around Udall Park. All abilities welcome! Afterwards, stick around for coffee, hot chocolate and treats--plus get a jump on holiday shopping at Fleet Feet for Small Business Saturday!
Your $10 entry fee supports the Children's Advocacy Center's work to protect children, restore families, and prevent abuse. Through forensic interviews, advocacy sessions, medical evaluations, and long-term support, the CAC walks alongside every child and family they serve, from the moment abuse is reported to the road toward healing. In addition, we'll be collecting new teddy bears for the kids!
