Port City Turkey Trot 5k & 10k 2026

The Port City Turkey Trot 5K & 10K begins and ends near Port City Brewing Company in Alexandria, Virginia, located at 3950 Wheeler Avenue. This pre-Thanksgiving run, organized by Bishop's Events, is suitable for families. The 10K race starts at 9:45 AM, followed by the 5K at 10 AM. Participants select either the 5K or 10K distance, run a chip-timed course, and conclude near the brewery. The route runs alongside Holmes Run, offering a waterside path close to Port City Brewing instead of a loop through downtown streets. The event is designed for families, casual runners, and those looking to race during the holiday week before Thanksgiving preparations. All finishers get a medal, a technical shirt, and a beer from Port City Brewing. The race supports Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic.
