Grand Prairie Turkey Trot 5K
The Grand Prairie Turkey Trot 5K is a community running event held on November 26, 2026, at Mike Lewis Park in Grand Prairie, Texas. The event is presented as the fifth annual edition and offers in-person and virtual participation options.
- 5K in person
- Virtual 5K
- Lil' Gobbler Trot 1K Fun Run (ages 5–12)
Youth participants in the 1K receive an untimed race bib, a finisher award (not a medal), snacks at the finish, and access to post-race activities. Parents may run or walk alongside children. Virtual registrants are listed as receiving a race T-shirt and a finisher's medal. A limited medal-only registration option is also available; medal pick up or mailing is provided but this option does not include a race bib.
Logistics and participant details noted by the organizer include a packet pickup on November 24, 2026, at Epic Nutrition in Grand Prairie, first-come first-serve T-shirt distribution with a T-shirt cutoff on November 13, and a bag check near packet pickup on race day. The course is described as flat. Parking at the park is free. Strollers and wheelchairs are permitted but are asked to start at the back of the field; the event enforces a one-hour course time limit.
Awards are given to overall male and female finishers and across age groups. The event benefits Grand Prairie United Charities Food Pantry, which requests donations of nonperishable food items. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
