Registration is open for Tamarac’s annual Turkey Trot 5K, which starts at 7:30 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 26, near Tamarac City Hall at 7525 NW 88th Ave. The race welcomes runners and walkers of all abilities.

Entry costs $35 through Nov. 17 and $40 from Nov. 18 through Nov. 25, but only while spots remain. There will be no race-day registration. The first 2,000 registrants receive a commemorative 2026 T-shirt, and anyone who finishes while wearing a race bib gets a medal. Trophies go to the top three overall male and female finishers and to age group winners.

The morning includes a pre-race stretch session, live music, food, refreshments, merchandise vendors and giveaways. Roads on the course will be closed from 6:30 to 10:30 a.m., so drivers in the area should plan alternate routes.

Race packets can be picked up at City Hall from 4 to 8 p.m. Nov. 23 through 25, or starting at 6:30 a.m. on race day. City Hall parking is limited, so the city is running a free shuttle from the Tamarac Walmart Neighborhood Market, 6931 NW 88th Ave., to the event.

Details and registration are available at Tamarac.gov/TurkeyTrot.
