About the Junior Woman's Club of Mequon-Thiensville Turkey Trot
The race runs through Thiensville on Thanksgiving morning, starting and finishing at Village Park. The course is a single out-and-back shape with one water stop roughly in the middle. Strollers and leashed dogs are welcome, though both need to line up near the back, which tells you something about how seriously the front of the field takes it.
Packet pickup opens the afternoon before the race at Village Park, with a second window on race morning before the gun. There is no bag check, so leave extra gear in your car.
