Thanksgiving Gobble Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 PHOENIX 2026

The Thanksgiving Gobble Trot Run in Phoenix begins at G.R. Herberger Park, offering participants a holiday-morning selection of a 5K, 10K, half marathon, or a 1-mile Family Fun Run. This yearly Thanksgiving-themed event, organized by The Best Races, carries the tagline “Wobble Before You Gobble,” encouraging participants to run or walk before their holiday meal, with family and friends invited. The event is smaller than a large city road race, featuring capped waves that close upon reaching capacity. All running paces are welcome, walkers are permitted, and participants under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian. The course map is distributed via email instead of being widely promoted beforehand. A virtual option is available for the 5K, 10K, and half marathon. Participants who prefer not to receive a shirt can opt for an Eco-Registration for the primary race distances.
