About the Berryville Turkey Trot 5K & 1 Mile Kids Fun Run

The course runs on a fitness trail and the road leading into Chet Hobert Park, a large property west of Berryville. Underfoot you get mixed terrain as the route moves between the trail and pavement, with the start and finish both in front of the parks and recreation building. Mile markers are posted along the way.

Bib pickup runs the evening before at the John H. Enders Fire and Rescue social hall, with race-morning pickup available at the registration table inside the parks and rec building. A food pantry donation drive runs at both pickup spots. After the race, frozen turkeys and door prizes are given away back at the building.

Common Questions About the Berryville Turkey Trot 5K & 1 Mile Kids Fun Run

Will I finish last at the Berryville Turkey Trot 5K & 1 Mile Kids Fun Run?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 35:28, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:17:55, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Berryville Turkey Trot 5K & 1 Mile Kids Fun Run a good first 5K?

A field of 320 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Berryville Turkey Trot 5K & 1 Mile Kids Fun Run?

The 5K winner ran 18:03 while the median finisher took 35:28. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
