Bishop Ranch Turkey Trot

The Bishop Ranch Turkey Trot is a Thanksgiving Day 5K held at Bishop Ranch City Center in San Ramon, California. This community race, timed with chips, offers two primary 5K choices: the FAST Turkey 5K for those aiming for under 40 minutes, and the Festive 5K for all others. A Tiny Turkey dash provides a 50-yard run for children under 5, making the morning suitable for racers, walkers, families, and spectators. The course circles the lakes and gardens near Bishop Ranch City Center, featuring a level path of pavement and packed dirt. Costumes are encouraged, including turkey suits, and pets may accompany family groups. Registration fees benefit the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano, lending the event a straightforward Thanksgiving theme: run, cheer, dress up, and support a local food bank before the holiday festivities commence.
