YWCA 2023 Turkey Trot 5K
The 43rd Annual YWCA Turkey Trot 5K run/walk is scheduled for Saturday, November 18, 2023, beginning at 8 a.m. A holiday happening since 1980, the YWCA Turkey Trot is the longest running all women’s 5K in the region. Its unique positioning as a women’s-only race highlights the YW mission to empower women, giving the moms, daughters, grandmothers, and friends who participate an opportunity to shine! Make this the year you become a part of this long-standing tradition.
No one is too young or too old to take part in this race and leashed pets and strollers are welcome. Participants have the option to run or walk a USTAF-certified route through historic Bristol, Tennessee starting near the iconic Bristol Sign and ending at the YWCA building. Start a new family tradition by participating in the YWCA Turkey Trot and collecting a finisher’s medal. Men can register for the race and receive a tee shirt and finisher’s medal, but they are not eligible to win a race category.
The YWCA Turkey Trot 5K is only one component of the YW’s health and safety initiative. As a part of our mission to encourage health and wellness, the YW hosts self-defense classes and provides physical activity in our childcare center and in our Tech GYRLS program. We also host several volleyball leagues and clinics.
For more information about the YWCA Turkey Trot contact the YWCA at ywca@ywcatnva.org . The first 200 who preregister for the Turkey Trot will receive a unique race tee shirt and freebies. Forms are available at the front desk of YWCA NETN and SWVA at 106 State Street, Bristol, Tennessee. Online registration is available at ywcatnva.org.
