The Turkey Trifecta 2026

The Turkey Trifecta is a Thanksgiving-season dirt-trail race series featuring short, stackable distances: 4K, 5K, and 6K. Participants can enter a single race, complete all three for a 15K total via the Trifecta Challenge, or opt for the Half Marathon Challenge. This latter option combines the 4K, 5K, 6K, and an additional 6K into a single continuous effort. The half marathon begins first, with subsequent starts for the 4K, 5K, and 6K. Check-in remains open until late morning. The courses consist of dirt trails, and the event embraces a turkey theme through Turkey Legs race bibs, turkey-themed finisher medals, and a distinct Half Marathon medal. The Half Marathon Challenge presents the greatest difficulty, as the final two 6K segments are run consecutively without a break. Races employ chip timing, with results published online. Awards are presented to top finishers in individual races, and overall and age-group medals are given for the Trifecta and Half Marathon. Post-race amenities include complimentary photos, music, snacks, hot chocolate, and turkey hot dogs.
