🦃 The Batavia Turkey Trot – Run with Purpose! 🏃♀️🏃♂️
📅 Thursday, November 27th, 2025 | 🕗 8:00 AM | 📍 Batavia, NY
Kick off your Thanksgiving Day with something that warms the heart and gets the blood pumping — the Batavia Turkey Trot! This isn’t just any 5K. It’s a celebration of community, gratitude, and giving back.
Whether you're an avid runner chasing a PR, a casual jogger, or just looking to walk off some early pumpkin pie — this event is for everyone. Family-friendly, stroller-friendly, and costume-friendly — we welcome all turkeys, big and small!
But here’s what makes our trot truly special:
100% of the proceeds are donated to Crossroads House, a local comfort care home that provides compassionate end-of-life care to those in our community. Your participation directly supports their mission of love, dignity, and care when it's needed most.
Why join us?
✅ A beautiful morning run through Batavia
✅ A chance to give back before giving thanks
✅ Hot drinks, snacks, and post-race cheer
✅ The perfect excuse for that second helping of pie
Lace up your sneakers, gather your friends and family, and start a Thanksgiving tradition that matters. Let’s come together, have some fun, and make a difference—one step at a time.
