Tammany Turkey Trot

What is it they say? Before you marry her, make sure her family isn't the type to run a 5K on Thanksgiving? If you're in the market, I'd stay away from Covington for the holidays—where families and groups will be gearing up to #earnyourturkey. Mapped as a tour of downtown Covington, the Tammany Turkey Trot benefits Our Lady of the Lake and the Northshore Food Bank, which also serves as its starting line. Races begin at 8 am. $40 for 5K/Walk; $45 for 5 Mile Run/Walk. tammanyturkeytrot.com.
