About the Hoboken's Annual Turkey Trot 5K
The course runs along Hoboken's waterfront, looping out and back from Pier A Park, with the Manhattan skyline sitting directly across the water the whole way. The road is flat, which makes it a good course for pushing a pace, but plenty of people are out there just enjoying the scenery and the holiday-week energy.
Packet pickup is held the evening before at a nearby medical office, and you can collect bibs for others as long as you bring their confirmation. Some race-morning pickup is also available at the start area. After the race, there is hot chocolate and music at the finish.
