Gare di Half Marathon vicino a Davis

The Davis Turkey Trot, held on the Saturday before Thanksgiving in Davis, California, begins at 6th and C Streets for all timed races. It offers participants a choice of distances on one morning: 1 mile, 2 mile, 5K, 10K, and half marathon, along with a children's run. The event typically draws between 1,000 and 5,000 participants, creating a busy, community-focused atmosphere. The courses are noted for being fast and flat, suitable for beginners, families, and those aiming for a consistent pace. The half marathon is not a Boston Qualifier. The event incorporates the holiday spirit through its shirts, post-race activities, and finisher medals for human and canine participants. Packet pickup is offered the day before and on race morning, with parking at Davis High School and bib pickup located near the finish line on race day.

The Thanksgiving Turkey Gobble Trot is a Sacramento run and walk held at Sutter's Landing Regional Park during the Thanksgiving season. Runners and walkers can choose a 5K, 10K, or half marathon, and there is also a virtual option for people who want to cover the distance on their own. The event is built for families and casual participants as much as regular runners, with all ages and paces welcome and under-18s needing a guardian. The setup is simple: pick a distance, bring friends or family, and run or walk before the holiday meal. The organizer leans into the Thanksgiving theme with the line “run so we can feast,” and the event is promoted as a community outing rather than a race that demands special gear or experience. Coordinators are on hand to support participants, which fits the relaxed format and makes the longer distances less intimidating for people setting a holiday fitness goal.
