Pensacola Turkey Trot 5k 2026

The Pensacola Turkey Trot 5K begins and ends at Seville Square in downtown Pensacola, Florida. This Thanksgiving morning 5K offers both a run and a walk, commencing at 8:00 a.m. CST and concluding by 9:30. RunPensacola, organized by Gulf Coast Event Group, presents the event, with Adam Guess as founder, BJ Price as race director, and Nathan Swafford managing timing. The course crosses Downtown Pensacola, returning to Seville Square. This configuration keeps the race focused on a historic public space. Walkers are eligible for awards along with runners, with prizes for overall, masters, grandmasters, age-group, and top walking finishers. The post-race gathering remains at Seville Square, featuring food, refreshments, an awards ceremony in the pavilion, and a BYOM tradition for participants to bring their own drink for the post-run celebration.
