the 27th annual

Fresno Turkey Trot @ Woodward Park

For over a quarter of a century, the Fresno running community has come together on Thanksgiving morning to make a difference — supporting the hungry in our city through generous donations and race registrations. The Fresno Turkey Trot isn’t just a run; it’s a tradition of gratitude, generosity, and good times. This year, your participation not only benefits the Central California Food Bank, but also supports the Coach Ray Knight Youth and Scholarship Programs, helping student-athletes across the Central Valley pursue their academic and athletic dreams.

Kick off your Thanksgiving with purpose! Whether you run the chip-timed 5K or enjoy the untimed 2-Mile Walk, you’ll be part of a festive and meaningful morning. Every participant will receive a long-sleeve Thanksgiving shirt, a commemorative finisher’s medal, and a tasty post-race treat.

Registering your family? If you register 4 to 10 people, you’ll automatically receive 10% off. Register 10 or more, and you’ll save 20%! Simply select "Multi-Person Pricing" during registration.

    Spring energy. Good movement. Matcha magic.

    This is your feel-good run to start the season right.

    Matcha for Miles is our newest wellness event— a blend of community-powered energy and feel-good miles. Think: your favorite Saturday morning routine, but leveled up with DJ beats, friends, and a whole community moving together.

    Whether you’re an elite runner, not-so-elite runner, stroller-pushing hero, or maybe you're in need of a hot-girl walk (yes diva!)… this morning is for you!

    Happening two weeks before the California Classic Half Marathon, it’s the perfect shakeout for your race— or a chance to simply show up for yourself and feel good while we dive into spring.

    Bring your people. Bring your energy. Bring your matcha sweet-tooth.

    Spring is in the air, and there’s no better time to celebrate wellness, movement, and community— one mile (and matcha) at a time.

    Let’s run, walk, vibe, and sip!
