About this race
The Memphis Turkey Trot begins at 9 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day, attracting over 2,000 participants and ranking as one of the Memphis area's largest annual races. The event offers a four-mile run or walk, plus a Turkey Leg Relay for those preferring a team format over the individual distance.
The race is set at the Memphis Botanic Gardens, with the course winding through Shelby Farms Park. It emphasizes the Thanksgiving morning tradition over intense competition, welcoming families, casual walkers, and local runners. A memorable finish-line feature is the distribution of a pumpkin pie slice to every participant.
