Plantation Lakes Turkey Trot | Presented by JTE Real Estate 2026

The Plantation Lakes Turkey Trot, a Thanksgiving road race in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, is presented by JTE Real Estate. It includes a 5K and a 1.6 km race, allowing participants to select a standard short race or a shorter, family-friendly distance. The race begins at 8000 Juxa Drive in Myrtle Beach's Plantation Lakes neighborhood. Past results indicate it is a road race with a manual wave start, suggesting a local, neighborhood-focused event designed for residents, walkers, and holiday morning participation rather than a large competitive field.
