## About

A warm community alternative to the mega-races, Good Shepherd's annual Turkey Trot in north Clearwater gathers families for an intimate, scenic 5K and 1-mile fun walk through residential parkways and along the Pinellas Trail. The race fosters a supportive, non-intimidating environment ideal for first-time youth runners, grandmas, and parents with double strollers.

Post-race refreshments feature hot cider, bagels, and fresh Florida oranges, with all proceeds directly benefiting neighborhood soup kitchens and shelter programs.
