GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (GRPS) – Walkers and runners in the 34th Annual Turkey Trot will be sporting blue this Thanksgiving as thousands take to the streets wearing the official 2026 event shirt.
“Perfect for crossing the Blue Bridge, posing by the LOVE sculpture and cheering on the Lions, we’re excited for a sea of blue to fill downtown Grand Rapids on Thanksgiving morning,” said GRPS Foundation President and CEO Stephanie Andrews.
This year’s event introduces two new races, the Taco Bell 10K and Mathnasium 1-Mile Walk, alongside the traditional 5K and Mini Trot.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Blue Care Network are once again proud to serve as presenting sponsor of the event, which supports GRPS Athletics, promotes healthy living and brings the community together.
