## About

Marking its milestone 40th annual edition, the Delray Beach Turkey Trot 5K is one of the most scenic oceanfront road races in Florida. Taking place on the Saturday morning preceding Thanksgiving, this beloved local tradition guides thousands of runners, joggers, and families along historic State Road A1A directly parallel to the sparkling Atlantic surf.

The fast, flat course welcomes strollers and multigenerational family walking groups right behind the competitive runners. Finishers receive a signature Delray Turkey Trot finisher medal, custom tech shirt, and healthy post-race refreshments at oceanfront Anchor Park, allowing families to enjoy a festive beach morning before holiday cooking begins.
