GobbleCross 2026

GobbleCross is a race series held in the United States around Thanksgiving, focusing on holiday runs instead of a single set course. The events feature various distances, accommodating runners seeking a challenging effort, casual participants, and families enjoying the day together. Courses differ among events, with some utilizing paved paths or roads and others taking place on trails, frequently within parks or recreational areas. The Thanksgiving theme is present through costumes, turkey motifs, and pie at the finish line. Some races also connect the event to charitable fundraising. Specific logistical elements vary by race, such as bag check availability, shuttle services, time limits, and participant numbers.
