About the Clay Turkey Trot 5K and Fun Run
The course starts and finishes in downtown Clay, so the surrounding block feels like the center of things. It is a road race open to all paces, and dogs and kids are welcome along for it. Proceeds support a local nonprofit working to rebuild downtown, which gives the morning a purpose beyond the finish line.
Day-of registration is available through the city office, so you have options if you miss the online window. Packet pickup logistics are straightforward given the downtown start area, with everything happening close together.
