23rd Annual Jupiter Turtle Trot 5K Run

Turtle Trot Jupiter

The 23rd annual Town of Jupiter Turtle Trot is coming to town May 4. This event has been a fan favorite for years and this year it is going to be even better!

Participants come out to run from all different parts of the county. The race begins in Carlin Park  and winds down the beach road (A1A) to the Jupiter Inlet and back.

Details of the Trot

There are 15 age groups for the race and the top 3 male and top 3 female runners from each group will take home awards. Some of the new things to look forward to this year in the race include group registration and the kid’s fun run! The group registration allows for 3 or more runners to run together as a team, the team with the most participants will win an award. For kids 11 and under, the fun run is a mile long run that is not timed and meant to be enjoyed with light spirits and quick feet.

Take Note of These Important Dates!

  • May 1- pre-registration. Register by 5:00pm!
  • May 3- IMPORTANT! Packet pickup. This is one day only where you can pick up your registration and race day papers.
  • May 4- RACE DAY! Race day registration ends at 7:00am and the race begins at 7:30am.

You don’t have to run to take part in the race.  If volunteering is more your speed you can do that as well! The Turtle Trot is looking for both adult and teenage volunteers to help with traffic control, water stations, registration and more! The volunteers will be given a race t-shirt and delicious continental breakfast.
