Thundercloud Subs Turkey Trot is an annual event organized by Thundercloud Subs in Austin, TX. Held on Thanksgiving Day outside the Long Center for the Performing Arts, it is the largest five-mile run in Texas with approximately 20,000 participants. Apart from the five-mile run, the event also features a one-mile walk and a Kid’s K, catering to participants of all ages and abilities.

All proceeds from the Turkey Trot go to Caritas of Austin, a nonprofit organization that assists the working poor and homeless individuals in Austin. Thundercloud Subs has raised over $3 million for Caritas since the inception of the event in 1991. Participants also have the opportunity to contribute through donations, fundraising challenges, and the Turkey Trot Raffle, with prizes including a brand new Honda Accord sponsored by First Texas Honda.

By registering for the run/walk, purchasing raffle tickets, or taking part in the Fundraising Challenge, participants directly impact the local community by supporting Caritas of Austin in providing essential services like housing, food, education, and employment assistance. Join Thundercloud Subs Turkey Trot in making a difference and help make this year's event the most successful yet!
