2019 Garden City Turkey Trot Set For Thursday
There's still time for you to register for Long Island's largest Thanksgiving race, which also raises money for charity.
The 42nd Annual Garden City Turkey Trot — the largest Thanksgiving day race on Long Island — is set for this Thursday, and there's still time to register.
More than 5,000 runners are expected to participate in this year's race. There are three different races, all of which start at St. Paul's School, located 285 Stewart Ave. A charity event, the Turkey Trot will be raising money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the INN and more. The 2018 race raised more than $100,000 for charity.
The three race categories are the Challenger Division Race (for special-needs athletes), which starts at 8:30 a.m.; the Fun Run, which starts at 9:15 a.m.; and the Five Mile Race, which starts at 10 a.m.
