YMCA of Pueblo Turkey Trot

The YMCA of Pueblo Turkey Trot is the 18th annual Thanksgiving morning 5K run and walk at the YMCA of Pueblo, 3200 E. Spaulding Avenue, on Thursday, November 26, 2026. The organizer calls it Pueblo’s favorite holiday tradition, and proceeds support the YMCA’s Scholarship Opportunity Fund, which helps neighbors, youth, and families access YMCA programs regardless of their ability to pay.

A free kids 1K fun run for ages 12 and under starts at 8:30 AM and requires no registration. The 5K run and walk starts at 9:00 AM. The race is part of the 2026 YMCA of Pueblo race series, following the Spooky Sprint and coming before the Hot Chocolate 5K.

Current registration for the 5K is $40 plus a processing fee, and online registration runs through November 25. There is no same day registration. All 5K participants receive a commemorative t-shirt, with shirts guaranteed for those registered by November 3 and handed out first come, first served after that. The organizer asks that pets be left at home.
