Mooresville/Lake Norman Turkey Trot

The Mooresville/Lake Norman Turkey Trot is an annual 5K race held in Mooresville, North Carolina, hosted by The Christian Mission. Now in its 14th year, the event supports local families by raising funds to combat poverty, providing food, clothing, financial assistance, and educational programs. The race features a 5K run and a Kids Fun Run (half-mile) for children aged 10 and under.

Participants receive awards for top finishers and can earn a commemorative long-sleeve t-shirt by registering early. The event encourages donations of canned and shelf-stable food items, fostering a community spirit of giving during the holiday season.
