Start your Thanksgiving morning with a fun-filled dash through downtown Hendersonville at the City’s 12th Annual Turkey Trot 5K! Whether you're a seasoned runner, a casual walker, or just in it for the costumes, this all-ages event is open to everyone.
The race kicks off at 8:30 a.m. on November 28, 2024, outside City Hall at Fifth Avenue East and King Street. You’ll trot through charming downtown Hendersonville and loop around to end the race back at City Hall. Runners and walkers should plan to be off the course by 10:30 a.m., leaving you plenty of time to feast. The race goes on rain, shine, or snow – so dress for the weather, and let’s make it memorable!
Registration is just $15 and includes a long-sleeved t-shirt. If you register by November 6th at 5 p.m., you’re guaranteed your preferred shirt size. We also need volunteers to put on a great event; volunteers can register online and get a free t-shirt for helping out.
Race packets can be picked up on November 25th and 26th from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. on the first floor of City Hall (160 Sixth Avenue East). Unclaimed packets will be redistributed by 9 a.m. on race day.
This isn’t your typical race – it’s all about fun! Costumes are encouraged, so break out your best turkey, pilgrim, or pumpkin getup. While it’s a non-sanctioned event, we’ll still hand out four fun prizes: farthest traveled, first male, first female, and a mystery time prize. Well-behaved pets (and well-behaved owners who clean up after them) are welcome at the race.
Before sitting down to your Thanksgiving meal, bring the entire family to the 12th Annual Hendersonville Turkey Trot!
