About the race
The Official Las Cruces Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot is a family-friendly running event held at the LCPS Field of Dreams in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Scheduled for Thanksgiving morning, it features three race distances: a 1-mile fun run, a 5K, and a 10K. The courses are flat and paved, with the 5K running along wide streets on Motel Boulevard and Bruins Road, while the 10K extends onto the city's trail system before rejoining the 5K route.
This closed-course race offers chip timing, age group awards, and prizes for best costume and largest team. Participants enjoy race swag, a slice of pumpkin pie post-race, and contribute to a youth running program through registration proceeds.
