Cambridge Thanksgiving Turkey Trot 5K 2026

Description

Join us on Thanksgiving morning for the 5th annual Cambridge Thanksgiving Turkey Trot 5k. This will be a morning of fun, community fellowship, and exercise! This fast and scenic course will start at the old brick Coila Church on State Route 372 complete with its new addition and increased parking capacity, and head towards the village of Cambridge. You will get to run along Old Coila Road, through portions of downtown, and by the old Cambridge Hotel before heading back down main street and finishing at The Coila Church, where snacks and beverages will be handed out as you finish, along with finish photos and finisher goodies! Course maps will be provided at check-in, route will be clearly marked and controlled by law enforcement to ensure safety.

Over the last 4 years, we have been proud to put 100% of registration profit towards the Cambridge Food Pantry, the CVRS (Cambridge Valley Rescue Squad), and the Cambridge Fuel Fund! This year's donations recipient will be announced shortly! Race T-Shirts will be available for purchase for participants who enroll prior to Friday, November 7.

Two opportunities for packet pickup will be provided, first on the evening before the race (Wednesday, Nov 25, from 4-5pm) and second on the morning of the race (Thursday, Nov 26) from 7:00-8:00. We highly encourage participants to use the Wednesday evening option to relieve the crowds Thursday morning. Any participant not checked in by 8:10 will be considered a "no-show" and refunds will not be issued. Family members may complete packet pickup/registration for their immediate family members. While we may have limited day-of registration available, we ask that you register as far in advance as possible to assist the event go smoothly.
