Englewood Beach Turtle Trot

The Englewood Beach Turtle Trot takes place at Chadwick Park in Englewood, Florida. This event features a coastal running experience where participants navigate a course set directly on the sand along the shoreline. The route follows the beach north for a specific distance before runners turn around to return to the finish line located at the park.

Several event options are available to participants:

  • Turtle Trot 5K
  • 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk
  • Virtual Turtle Trot 5K

All individuals participating in the 5K or 1-Mile events receive commemorative items, including a custom sea turtle beach towel and a finisher medal that also functions as a magnet. The 5K event is chip-timed, and awards are presented to the top three male and female finishers horizontally across the overall category. Furthermore, age group awards are provided for the top three male and female finishers in various categories ranging from ages 10 and under to 70 and over.

Packet pickup is organized both on the day prior to the race and on the morning of the event at Chadwick Park. Facilities at the location include parking at 2100 N Beach Road. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
