About the Northborough Turkey Trot 2026
The Northborough Turkey Trot runs on Thanksgiving morning, sending runners through town before most people have started cooking. It benefits local organizations, with proceeds going to the Northborough Police Association this year. The atmosphere leans toward families and neighbors more than stopwatch-watchers, and there is music at the race.
Post-race, expect food and prizes at the finish. It is a full spread, not just water and bananas, which fits the holiday well before everyone heads home to the main event.
