## About

The San Antonio Food Bank's 17th annual Turkey Trot is a Thanksgiving-morning 5K run and walk on a downtown route that starts and finishes at the Commander's House at H-E-B Arsenal on South Flores Street. Thousands of people take part, from serious runners to families strolling the course together, and every registration funds a turkey for a family facing hunger. Children aged 4 to 11 can register at a reduced child rate when racing with a registered adult, and kids 3 and under take part free (a shirt can be bought for them). Pick up bibs and shirts at one of the packet pick-up days the week before (TriPoint on N. St. Mary's, Concordia Lutheran on Huebner Road, or the Food Bank on Old Hwy 90) or on site on race morning. Free race-day parking is in the H-E-B garage on Dwyer Avenue and at H-E-B Arsenal; arrive early, as the event runs 8:30 to 11:30 a.m.
