Montlake Turkey Trot
Get ready to trot it out at the Montlake Turkey Trot in the lush Washington Park Arboretum! Whether you’re sprinting in the 5k, cheering on the budding runners in the kids’ dash, or soaking up nature on our NEW untimed walk category, there’s a pace for every face. And the cherry on top? Every cent we raise goes straight to the University District Food Bank. So, let’s race, have a blast, and make a difference together!

The 5th Annual Montlake Turkey Trot has gone virtual with 100% of the fun and community benefits. A primary goal of the Montlake Turkey Trot is to raise money for the University District Food Bank (UDFB). The impacts of COVID-19 have hit those farthest from opportunity the hardest and the UDFB has seen an increase in demand as more people face food insecurity. We are proud to partner with the UDFB and will donate 100% of all net proceeds from the Montlake Turkey Trot to them.
Registration includes a race bib, finisher medal, and a neck buff that features the Montlake Bridge. Swag will be shipped/delivered directly to your home prior to Thanksgiving day. Want to participate but don’t want the swag? You can still sign up and opt out of the swag for a lower cost. In just the last week, we raised enough from sponsors to cover the cost of all swag and shipping so no matter what you choose, your registration dollars will be supporting a great cause! Thanks again to all our cash sponsors: Windermere Real Estate Midtown, Graham Construction, Hilleberg the Tentmaker, Mangum Fitness, and Diane Terry.
So join the fun by registering today! And don’t forget to supersize your support to the UDFB by making an additional donation right after you register! And we still have opportunities for volunteers and sponsors.
Help organize the 2nd annual Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning. Volunteering is a terrific way to meet Montlake neighbors, and help the University District Food Bank.Opportunities abound! There are many ways to help: choose one or more shifts either on Thanksgiving morning (race day) or prior to the event. Assist with course signs and cones, water stations, course monitoring, garbage collection, or help with the Kids Fun Run.
This is a great opportunity for students who need service hours.
