Milwaukee Turkey Trot 5K & 8K

The Milwaukee Turkey Trot 5K & 8K is a Thanksgiving Day run in Milwaukee, offering 5K and 8K distances. It begins in the morning at 1750 N. Lincoln Memorial Drive, providing runners and walkers a pre-feast race along the city's lakefront. The choice is straightforward: select the 5K or the 8K, arrive with family or friends, and start moving before the holiday meal. The event welcomes a wide audience, not exclusively competitive runners, accommodating families, casual participants, and those continuing a Thanksgiving tradition.
