Get your kids involved and join us for this year's Kids Turkey Trot Fun Run presented by our Official Orthopedic Partner, Coastal Orthopedics and the Bradenton Runners Club. Kids will get excited about fitness when they lace up their shoes and enjoy this 1/3 mile run, which is open to children of all fitness levels. Whether they sprint or jog their way from start to finish, each child participates in a confidence building event that enhances their general health, while they experience the thrill of crossing the finish line.
PLEASE NOTE: All registrations for minors under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult registration and require a waiver signed by a guardian or parent.
As in past years, however, we are still asking all participants to recognize the efforts of our local charities, the Food Bank of Manatee and Turning Points, by making donations when they register for this race. Monetary donations may be made online here, and/or in person on race day.
The Food Bank of Manatee will be on-site on Thanksgiving Day to collect your donations of canned or non-perishable foods, while Turning Points will be collecting donations of sneakers, tennis, and running shoes on race day. Also, this year's Turkey Trot will include a diaper drive in support of our newest sponsor, One More Child.
Race shirts will be available for purchase when you register online. Proceeds from the sale of race shirts, and any additional donations, benefit our sponsored charities. Shirts and bibs are available for pickup at early check-in on Tuesday November 25th, or Wednesday the 26th from 5:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. at Fit2Run The Runners Superstore 4951 Cortez Rd.
