YMCA of Lincoln Turkey Trot

The YMCA of Lincoln Turkey Trot, held in downtown Lincoln at the Railyard, is a cherished Thanksgiving morning tradition now in its 176th year. Participants can choose from a Tot Trot for children 5 and under, a 1-Mile Fun Run/Walk, or a 5K race, with options to run in-person or virtually. The event welcomes runners and walkers of all levels, with strollers allowed but no dogs on the course.

The race supports the YMCA's Annual Fundraising Campaign to help youth, families, and seniors access YMCA programs. Awards and prizes are given across age groups, and the event features a festive atmosphere with family-friendly activities and community involvement.
