Tallahassee Turkey Trot 15K/10K/5K/1Mile

Turkey Gobbler 1 Mile Race

The Turkey Gobbler 1 Mile Race starts at 8:00 a.m. sharp. The start is on Esplanade Way close to the flagpole. The Gobbler course runs a big rectangle and there are only PRs without any hills. The finish line for all four races is located at the same on Esplanade Way close to Merchants Row.

The Turkey Trot 5K (3.1 Miles)

The 5K starts on Esplanade Way at 8:30 a.m. sharp. There is a hill on this course, but overall it is a very fast course. It is also the race distance most people choose to run. The course is primarily a loop on Grove Park Drive around Central Park Lake and it finishes on Esplanade Way near the start.

The Turkey Trot 10K (6.2 Miles)

The 10K race starts at the same place (Espanade Way) and time (8:30 AM) as the 5K and the 15K. For the first two miles the race courses run the same path. Runners may change races any time during those first two miles as long as they are careful to run the entire race and avoid knocking anyone down.

The Turkey Trot 15K (9.3 Miles)

The 15K starts at 8:30 a.m. with the 5K and 10K runners, but it is for the dedicated runner. Participants must be able to finish the race before 10:30 a.m. It is a great race if you are ready to take on the challenge.
