A Thanksgiving Tradition Rooted in Franklin Park

Since its launch in 2013, the Franklin Park Turkey Trot has grown from a neighborhood 5K into the largest Thanksgiving Day race in the City of Boston. Hosted by the Franklin Park Coalition, the annual event brings together runners, walkers, families, community organizations, and neighbors for a Thanksgiving morning tradition in the heart of Boston’s largest park. In recent years, participation has grown to more than 2,500 people, with many returning year after year.
