Turkey Trot Detroit

Website

Located in Detroit, Michigan, the Strategic Staffing Solutions Turkey Trot (S3 Turkey Trot) is a long-running Thanksgiving-season race that kicks off America’s Thanksgiving Parade presented by Gardner White. The event offers multiple distances: a 10K Turkey Trot, a 5K Stuffing Strut, and the family-friendly Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan Mashed Potato Mile, with options to combine events. Participants often dress in costumes, creating a festive atmosphere described as “The Parade before The Parade” as they run before Michigan’s largest spectator crowds.

Perks include a long-sleeved technical shirt for all finishers and custom-designed medals. Jogging strollers are allowed; pets and bikes are not. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
