Hopkinsville Turkey Trot registration open now

Registration is open now for a hometown favorite, as Hopkinsville Parks and Recreation gears up for the 2023 Turkey Trot. 

According to a news release, the annual Thanksgiving 5K takes place each year at 8 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day as walkers, runners, joggers, bikers and even some four-legged participants make their way through parts of downtown Hopkinsville and the Hopkinsville Greenway System. The Turkey Trot is a non-competitive, non-timed race and it is free to take part. 

Over the last 21 years the event has grown to attract between 1,200 to 1,500 participants and a wide variety of community sponsors, and has become a holiday tradition for many families.

Registration and more event information can be found online at hoptownrec.com, or you can give them a call directly at 270-887-4290.
