Budds Creek Turkey Trot 5k, 10k, & Half 2026

The Budds Creek Turkey Trot 5k, 10k, & Half is a November race held at Budds Creek Motorsports Park on Budds Creek Road in Mechanicsville, Maryland. This event offers runners three distance options: the standard 5K and 10K, along with a half marathon for those seeking a longer distance than typically found at holiday-themed trots. The unique setting distinguishes this race, as participants convene at a motorsports park instead of a typical downtown street, park loop, or school campus. Bishop's Events is the organizer, with Travis Bishop as the event contact. The listing notes Budds Creek as one of the organizer's more recent Turkey Trot venues. Virtual participation is also available, with options including a medal, no medal or shirt, or both a medal and shirt.
