Turkey Trot Franklin Benefiting GraceWorks
About the race
2026 Turkey Trot Franklin
Now in its 27th year, this Thanksgiving Day tradition is a family feel-good, do-good time.
Over 4,700 participants run/walk through the heart of Cool Springs, and many of their friends and family stand on the sidelines to cheer them on.
Each Trotter crosses the finish line knowing that local Neighbors in need now have more food, shelter, and support services because they ran for GraceWorks.
