About the race
The Mansfield Turkey Trot is a community running event held in late November 2026 at James McKnight Park East in Mansfield, Texas (700 Highway 287 S). The event program includes a 5K and a separate kids fun run. Participants receive a long-sleeve race tech shirt and finisher medals; the 5K field receives a custom timed bib.
Overall and age-group awards are given for the 5K, with overall and masters overall awards for first-place male and female and age-group awards three deep. Awards are based on chip time with no double dipping for overall winners. Packet pick-up is available at designated retail locations in the days before the event and on the morning of the event; local packet pick-up locations include The Runner Shop in Arlington and RunUnited Mansfield with specified pickup windows. The course includes one aid station located near the 1.5M point to provide water and observe safety. Event rules note that headphones are not allowed on the 5K course, strollers are permitted with consideration for other participants, and dogs are allowed if kept on a short leash and managed responsibly.
Movin' Pictures is listed as the race photographer, with photos available shortly after the event. The event supports The School of Lexia through Mansfield Turkey Trot Giving. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
