Description
Let’s burn off as many calories as possible before the bird even comes out of the oven! 🦃✨Join FloDash runners and walkers for the 6th Annual AdventHealth Groveland Turkey Trot 5K & 10K presented by LiveTrends Design Group as we kick off Thanksgiving morning with a nationwide tradition for the whole family.
Our scenic course showcases Groveland's beautiful hills along Wilson Lake Parkway, with closed roads thanks to the incredible support of Lake County, the City of Groveland, and the Groveland Police Department. For those tackling the 10K, a portion of the course includes hard-packed off-road terrain, which will remain open to cars but will be clearly marked for your safety.
Whether you’re running or walking, this event promises a fun and festive way to start your Thanksgiving. View the course map below and follow us on Facebook and Instagram for updates. Start your holiday strong and make memories with FloDash this Thanksgiving! 🏃♀️🏃♂️🍁
All participants will receive a chip timed bib, a race shirt, a finisher's medal and a post race snack and beverage. All runners and walkers on the course MUST BE REGISTERED. Anyone running without a bib is subjecting themselves to a misdemeanor and putting the race in jeopardy. If you want to pace a child, spouse or friend, you MUST register as well. BANDIT AND PACING RULES
There may be race day registration if we are not sold out but the price does go up so register early and save. Please read our refund /exchange bib policy and our Frequently Asked Questions to get all the information you need. There are no refunds, but we do have a generous exchange policy.

5K & 10k Courses
New 2025!! The 10k course has been reversed to accommodate the field better. All 5k and 10k participants (at different start times) will run North on Wilson Lake Parkway towards the turnaround and first water stop, then return south towards the finish line. 10k participants will make a right hand turn on Libby Number 3 and take the loop in reverse towards the same turnaround at our volunteer spot on S Obrien before heading back to West Libby and then the finish line. You'll have a second water stop right before mile 4.
