About the Fenton Turkey Trot Fun Run & Walk Thanksgiving Day
The course follows the Silver Lake Laff Pathway, a paved route that runs alongside the lake. The surroundings are open enough that you get some sky and water, which makes a Thanksgiving morning feel less like a workout and more like a reason to be outside.
Proceeds go toward future pathway projects in Fenton, so the race has a local-infrastructure purpose beyond just getting people moving. It draws a genuine mix of paces, from those pushing strollers to those chasing personal bests, and the format keeps things unhurried.
