Art on the Run: Suwanee Turkey Trot 5K

Art on the Run: Suwanee Turkey Trot 5K is held in Suwanee, Georgia, on November 14, 2026. Put on by the Suwanee Arts Center, the event starts with the 5K at 10:00 AM, followed at 10:15 AM by a kids' fun walk/run around the park, so young children get their own short outing right after the adults set off. The late-morning schedule fits a relaxed Saturday.

As a pre-Thanksgiving road 5K, this race suits anyone who wants a seasonal goal: a first-timer working through a couch-to-5K progression, a regular runner looking for a fast 3.1 miles, or a family walking together. With two months to go, three runs a week including one session of 400-meter repeats is plenty of preparation. If you are targeting a time, use the 15 minutes before the kids' start to cool down with a jog rather than standing around, then cheer the children on.
