The Chatham Turkey Trot

Join us for the 15th Annual Chatham Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 23, 2023. This event is a family holiday tradition that offers expert and novice runners alike the opportunity to spend time with family, friends, and neighbors, to raise funds for our first responders and diabetes research and education, and to break a sweat before the big meal. The event consists of a 1 Mile Family Fun Run and a USA Track & Field certified 5K Race that takes participants through the scenic Highlands section of Chatham Township, NJ. Each year, The Chatham Turkey Trot attracts more than 1,200 runners who help raise funds for our beneficiaries, including the Chatham Township Volunteer Fire Department, the Diabetes Research Institute, The Barton Center for Diabetes Education, and the Chatham Emergency Squad. Since 2009, we have raised more than $270,000 from the generous support of our sponsors, donors, and runners. Register before November 1st to receive a T-shirt. Be sure to review Important Race Details in advance of the race for information related to parking, restrooms, pets, and more!
