About the 17th Annual SFB Turkey Trot "Pace With Grace"

This is a Thanksgiving morning race in Cedarburg, with the start near a school off Covered Bridge Road. Dogs, strollers, and guests of all kinds are part of the scene, and the atmosphere reflects that. The top finishers in each gender take home turkey leg and wing trophies, which gives the front of the pack something to run for.

Parking is at a church nearby, with a short walk to the school's athletic entrance as the way in. Packet pickup happens the morning of the race, well before the start, so there is time to get sorted before the field heads out.

Common Questions About the 17th Annual SFB Turkey Trot "Pace With Grace"

Is the 17th Annual SFB Turkey Trot "Pace With Grace" a good first 3.4 Miles?

A field of 411 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.4 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the 17th Annual SFB Turkey Trot "Pace With Grace"?

The 3.4 Miles winner ran 19:11 while the median finisher took 35:58. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
