Thanksgiving (ish) Races in Louisville Metro

A quick round-up of Thanksgiving-timed races — but, like with all holidays, it seems, they’re starting early (this weekend!).

• Nov. 14 — Turkey Trotter 8k in Buckner (Oldham County)
• Nov. 14 — Turkey Trot 5k in Campbellsville
• Nov. 21 — Leadership Shelby Turkey Trot 5k (Shelby County)
• Nov. 26 — 45th Annual Northeast YMCA Turkey Trot 5k/10k
• Nov. 26 — 36th Annual Thanksgiving Day Run (5 miler) at Iroquois Park
• Nov. 26 — Fast Freddie’s Festive Five-Mile Foot Feast in New Albany
• Nov. 26 — Anchorage 5k/10k (website not working to register but I’ve let them know)

Technically a fun run and not a race … The Black Friday Midnight Run (starts at midnight Nov. 28) in Jeffersonville, Ind. No distance listed but inexpensive to join and Flat 12 Bierworks is staying open late including the kitchen. Dogs welcome.
