Blue Ostrich Wine Run Turkey Trot 5k

Blue Ostrich Wine Run Turkey Trot 5K is held in Saint Jo on November 7, 2026. The program is a single 5K, 3.1 miles, starting at 9:00 a.m., which makes for an easy morning to plan around: one start, one distance, and a winery as the backdrop for a November turkey trot.

Short races like this one suit runners at both ends of the spectrum. If you have never raced, a few weeks of running three times a week will get you to the finish comfortably, and walking breaks are entirely normal in a trot-style field. If you are in shape, the 5K is a useful hard effort that leaves your legs fresh again within a couple of days, so it slots neatly into a fall block without disrupting anything.
