Lansing Turkey Trot

The Lansing Turkey Trot is an annual 5K run/walk held in downtown Lansing, Michigan, on Thanksgiving morning. Participants enjoy a flexible start line between 9:00 and 9:10 am, allowing runners to begin at their own pace. The course offers an accurate 5K route through the city, with ample free parking available at Lansing Community College.

Registration includes a popular DRI-POWER® long-sleeve shirt if signed up by the deadline. Awards are given for various age groups and overall categories. A virtual option is also available for those who cannot attend in person.

Proceeds support local youth running programs through the Michigan Running Foundation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
