Turkey Trot Side Dishes
Just like you need sides with your turkey, you need accessories with your medal!
Some people (us included) believe that the sides are just as important as the turkey on Thanksgiving (maybe even more so...👀). That's why we love producing not only the medals for dozens of turkey trots across the nation, but also the accessories! From warm socks to festive headwear and everything in between, we’ve got everything runners need to trot comfortably - and in style.
Thanksgiving morning races have become a beloved tradition for runners, families, and communities all across the country. There’s something special about gathering at the start line before the holiday rush begins, bundled up and buzzing with energy. For many, a turkey trot isn’t just a race or a fun run; it’s the unofficial kickoff to the day’s celebrations!
But as anyone who has raced in late November knows, the weather can be… unpredictable. Some years deliver that perfect crisp, fall chill; others bring icy wind, freezing temps, or even a dusting of early-season snow. That’s why the right accessories make all the difference.
Accessories also help race organizers transform their event into something memorable. They’re often the first thing participants interact with — the warm gloves they pull on during packet pickup, the headwear they slip on as they wait for the race to start. These pieces become small keepsakes from a big experience, and knowing that our work helps shape those race-day memories is something we take pride in year after year.
At the end of the day, turkey trots are about more than running; they’re about community, tradition, and creating memories that stick with people long after the finish line. In the same way the sides complete a Thanksgiving feast, the accessories complete a turkey trot, making race morning a little warmer, a little brighter, and a whole lot more fun.
Wishing a happy and healthy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate!
