About the Shandon Turkey Trot & Burn 5K
The course runs through the tree-lined residential streets of the Shandon neighborhood, certified and mostly flat. It starts on Woodrow Street near a local church, winds through the surrounding blocks, and comes back to the same spot. A costume contest runs alongside the race, with prizes for the most creative Thanksgiving outfits, so expect a fair number of feathered hats and inflatable turkeys in the crowd.
Packet pickup is the evening before the race at Craft and Draft on Devine Street, a bar where you can grab a beer while you collect your bib. Race-day pickup and registration open early at the start line. Street parking is available along Devine Street and the surrounding neighborhood; the church lot adjacent to the start is reserved for race setup.

The Shandon Turkey Trot & Burn 5K has been held every year since at least 2019. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
