Lehigh Valley Turkey Trot

Lehigh Valley Turkey Trot takes place in Whitehall, Pennsylvania, on November 21, 2026. The half marathon (13.1 miles) leads off at 9:00 a.m., the 5K starts at 9:15 a.m. and the 10K at 10:15 a.m. There is also a combo entry that pairs the 5K with the 10K for a combined 15 kilometers, which is why the two shorter races sit an hour apart. The late-morning schedule is unusual for a November race and leaves plenty of time to reach the start.

The combo is the interesting option here. Running a 5K hard, recovering for around forty-five minutes and then racing a 10K is a real test of how well you handle a second effort, and it is useful preparation if you are building toward a longer goal. If you would rather keep it simple, the standalone 5K and 10K are straightforward, and the half marathon wants a 12-week block with one long run each week worked up toward 11 miles.
