Las Cruces Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot

The Las Cruces Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot is a festive running event held annually on Thanksgiving morning at the LCPS Field of Dreams. Participants can choose from three race options: a 10K run, a 5K run, and a 1-mile fun run, making it suitable for all ages and fitness levels. The event promotes community spirit and includes fun features such as a slice of pumpkin pie for finishers, costume contests, and awards for top runners.
