It’s no secret Los Angeles has a homeless crisis. That’s why we’ve set the bar high this year and are on a mission to raise $50k for @themidnightmission! If every Turkey Trotter donates just $10, we can meet our goal! Create a team during registration and start fundraising today! 🙏🦃 🏃♀️💰🏡 #repost @Ben affleck 🙌 HA, you got me. I’m dating. But let’s be serious for a moment and talk about something that is actually important. I have been in recovery for over a year and part of that is helping out others. @themidnightmission is an incredible organization that helps those in need with housing, training, development and recovery. I’m making a donation today because there are people battling addiction every day that don’t have the resources and need help. @raya, you in? Who else is with me? Click the link in my bio to donate.

Good morning Turkey Trotters and Happy Thanksgiving!🦃
If the rain remains as heavy, is the race still on?
How long is the route for the kids fun run?
Turkey Trot Los Angeles thanks for making sure there was at least water and bananas for us 🐢 🐢 doing the 10k this year!
😋run this race every year w/ my kids..just kinda makes you feel a bit better eating a second serving of my husbands homemade Pecan Pie...LOVE IT!.. cant wait. 🙂 always a 10k you deserve that xtra whip cream to your pie...
Just added your event to our West Coast Running Calendar. With 3,000+ events on the calendar, it's the largest of its kind in the Greater Pacific Northwest (and also lists over 600 West Coast Halfs/Marathons/Ultras/Relays), it's easily and quickly searchable, and plays nicely with mobiles. Good luck with your event !! - http://pnwrunningcalendar.com/wcal.php?source=FB&event_title=&city_title=&city=LosAngeles&radius=50
Hello! Just finished both the 5k and 10k. It was a very lovely and fun race. Only complaint is the lack of any porta potties at the start/finish or any where along the course especially for a race this size. Hate having to choose between my pants and the sidewalk! 😂🤣 I hope to be back next year. Thanks.

I wish there would be a bag check in! Some of us are taking public transportation and it would be ideal to have a place to leave our things just like last year.
I registered for my wife and I during the first Early Bird months ago, received emails to pick up the packets this past week, and now find that we never got registered. I emailed your customer service and hope you guys/gals can help us.
Hey, fix the website link. i am trying to get information about the event but does not work. thanks.
