Amery Turkey Trot, presented by Brightside Running

Join us on Thanksgiving morning for the Amery Turkey Trot 5k, presented by Brightside Running!

Pop the turkey in the oven, then head to Amery with your family and friends to run, jog, or walk a 5k! This is a community event, open to adults and children alike!

Swag: (Picture coming soon) All registrants will receive a 2025 Amery Turkey Trot t-shirt. Register by Monday, November 10 to be guaranteed a shirt in your size. We will have extra shirts at registration, but cannot guarantee a shirt in your size if you register after this date.

Course: The Amery Turkey Trot is an out-and-back 5k (3.1 miles) on the Stower Seven Lakes State trail, a flat gravel trail. Due to the out-and-back nature of this course, we ask that you practice good running conduct and keep to the right so runners may pass as needed.

*This is not a closed course. We will have volunteers at major road crossings, but not all. Please be mindful of traffic - your safety is the number one priority! 

*The trail is open to the public during this time. Please be mindful of other users.

*No dogs permitted.

Timing: This event will be manually timed. Participants will receive a race bib with a unique number and our volunteers will take times as runners cross the finish line. (However, if we have enough interest in the event, we will be using a timing company with chip timing instead.)

Awards: More details coming soon!
