Shandon Turkey Trot 5K
The Shandon Turkey Trot & Burn 5K is a community running event held in Columbia, South Carolina, showcasing the historic Shandon Neighborhood. This USA Track & Field certified 5K course is flat and fast, winding through tree-lined streets. Open to runners and walkers, the race encourages participants to wear creative Thanksgiving-themed attire, with prizes for the top three costumes.
The event supports the Shandon Neighborhood Council, a nonprofit focused on local improvements. Capped at 1,000 participants, it welcomes strollers and leashed dogs. The start and finish are near Craft and Draft, where the awards ceremony takes place.
Team registration discounts and a festive atmosphere make it a popular post-Thanksgiving event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
