Turkey Trot Miami

Turkey Trot Miami takes place in the heart of Miami, Florida, on Friday, November 27, 2026, the day after Thanksgiving. Two distances are on offer: a 5K for a quick, lively outing and a 10K for runners who want to push a little further. The course winds through the busy neighborhoods of this cosmopolitan city in the warm climate that defines South Florida, with the friendly atmosphere typical of holiday-season races.

Both formats are road races and both are approachable. The 5K works well as a first race or as a fast effort the morning after a big meal, while the 10K suits runners who already have a few months of regular running behind them and want a meaningful target. Given the warmth you can expect in Miami even in late November, plan to hydrate well and dress lighter than you would for a race up north. A four- to eight-week build with three runs a week, one of them slightly longer, will have you ready for either distance.
