A Zoom Turkey Trot Thanksgiving reggelén indul a Hellyer County Parkból, San Jose-ben. A futók a Coyote Creek Trailen mennek, a versenyközpont pedig a Buena Vista Pavilionnél lesz. Van 5K, 10K és USATF-certified half marathon is. A 6 év alatti gyerekeknek ingyenes 50-yard Kids Run indul. A rajtok délelőtt eltolva mennek: először a Kids Run, utána a half marathon, majd a 10K és a 5K. A 5K-n és 10K-n külön nevezési kategóriák vannak a fiatalabb futóknak, szóval családos programnak is működik, de annak is jó, aki egy hosszabb ünnepi futást keres. A pálya nagyrészt sík, végig jelölt, és szinte teljesen aszfaltos. Az 5K és a 10K végig burkolaton marad, a half marathonban viszont van egy rövid single-track szakasz. Frissítőpontok 2 to 4 miles-enként lesznek, gyümölccsel, sós nasival, cukorkával, vízzel és electrolyte drinkkel. A verseny cupless, vagyis saját kulacsot vagy poharat kell vinni. A pályaszabályok: balról előzz, szólj előtte, single tracken, útkereszteződéseknél, frissítőnél és a célban ne legyen rajtad fülhallgató, kutyát pedig ne vigyél a pályára. A résztvevők custom medalt kapnak, az előnevezők pólót, a korosztályos kategóriák első három helyezettje díjazást kap. Minden távon a top három férfi és női futó külön díjat és race creditet kap. És igen, van rendes Thanksgiving-díj is: lehet nyerni egy turkeyt.

The Morgan Hill AAUW Wildflower Run begins and ends at Live Oak High School. It features a 10K USATF-certified run, a 5K run/walk/stroller option, and 2K events on the school track. The 5K and 10K are flat, fast road races on local back roads. The 10K follows the same route as the 5K, adding a second loop. This annual, all-volunteer fundraiser for AAUW Morgan Hill can accommodate up to about 1,500 participants, an increase from the previous cap of 1,200. The race route was adjusted due to increased runner and vehicle traffic causing conflicts on Main Avenue and Condit Road. The revised course eliminates dangerous left turns onto and off Main Avenue, reducing the need for police assistance. The event typically nets around $65,000 after expenses. Funds are generated through registration fees, sponsors, and member donations, supporting scholarships for women and girls, grants for women’s organizations, and leadership programs. The event includes a 2K for children aged 5 to 10, a 2K run/walk for all ages, shirts, medals, goodie bags for children, stroller baby tees, entertainment along the route, complimentary photos, and a Finish Fest with refreshments, vendors, and youth activities.
