Turkey Trot Half Marathon

The Keyworth Turkey Trot Half Marathon is an established and popular part of the December running calendar. Keyworth is a village nestled in the countryside of the South Nottinghamshire Wolds, eight miles to the south east of Nottingham. The quality of the course itself, and its organisation, means many runners return year after year. As you would expect from an established race, the route is well marked, and marshals are present to protect, guide and encourage the runners. Prizes for 1st 3 overall, plus winners of each age category, 1st local runners (living in one of the villages on the route), 1st team (best 3 runners to count) plus lots of spot prizes. Free parking is provided in three car parks in the village. Even the most distant car park is within walking distance to the start/finish point. Facilities at the race include St John’s Ambulance first aid at the start/finish and roving first aid on the route, three drinks stations on the route, toilets, refreshments & kit storage, trade stands including the sale of running shoes and equipment, and pre- and post- race massage. At the finish, runners can enjoy a well earned complementary tea or coffee or a cold beverage. We even cater for runners’ supporters who can relax indoors and enjoy a little entertainment, while they await the return of the runners.
