Westfield Turkey Trot 5 Mile

The Westfield Turkey Trot is an annual community running event held in Tamaques Park, Westfield, New Jersey, traditionally on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. The event features a 5 Mile Run that is part of the USATF-NJ Grand Prix, known for its flat and fast course, making it ideal for competitive runners. Additionally, there is a new 5280 Run (one mile) for ages 15 and up, also part of the Grand Prix, and a PracticeHard Mile fun run and walk open to all ages and abilities.
