About the Early Bird Turkey Trot Half Marathon

The Early Bird Turkey Trot is a half marathon, 15K, 10K and 5K held on a Saturday in November in Kennesaw, Georgia, northwest of Atlanta, ahead of Thanksgiving. All distances start together at 8:00 AM on a single 3.1-mile loop that organizers describe as fairly flat. The 5K runs the loop once, the 10K twice, the 15K three times and the half marathon four times plus a short extra section. Five Star NTP, a race production company, organizes the event, and runners who finished any of its races in the qualifying window earn a free 5K entry.
