About the Haddon Township Turkey Trot 5k

The race starts and finishes at The Pour House on Haddon Avenue in Westmont, with a shorter fun run going off first and the main race shortly after. The course is the same route used in past years, so locals know what to expect. Awards cover a wide range of age groups, and there is a Thanksgiving costume contest for those who show up dressed for the occasion.

Packet pickup runs the evening before at Haddonfield Running Co. on Kings Highway East, with race-morning pickup and registration available at The Pour House before the gun goes off. A post-race gathering takes place at The Pour House immediately after, with refreshments on hand.

Common Questions About the Haddon Township Turkey Trot 5k

Will I finish last at the Haddon Township Turkey Trot 5k?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 29:57, and the last recorded finisher came in around 57:29, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Haddon Township Turkey Trot 5k a good first 5K?

With 993 finishers there are runners at every pace, so you are never out on your own. 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 Haddon Township Turkey Trot 5k?

The 5K winner ran 15:34 while the median finisher took 29:57. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
