Milford Turkey Trot

The Milford Turkey Trot is a fun, non-competitive run/walk held annually in Milford, Connecticut, on Thanksgiving morning. The event offers multiple distances, including a casual 3+ mile route starting at Fowler Park Pavilion, with shorter 1- and 2-mile out-and-back options suitable for all ages and abilities. The course follows sidewalks through scenic local streets near Gulf Beach, ensuring safety with no road closures.

Participants can run, walk, bring strollers, kids, or pets on leashes. The event is charity-focused, with 100% of proceeds benefiting local organizations supporting schools, food pantries, and pediatric cancer awareness. Virtual participation is also encouraged, making it inclusive and community-oriented. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
