About the Omaha Turkey Trot 5K
This is a Thanksgiving morning race in Omaha, and the holiday timing shapes the whole feel of it. Families tend to show up in costume, the mood is loose, and the course draws people who ran yesterday and people who have not run in years. It is a short route, over before the turkey even goes in the oven.
There are donuts at the finish line, which is about as Thanksgiving as a post-race spread gets. Packet pickup details are posted on the event's own page, so worth a look before race morning.
