Turkey Trails - Fayetteville 2026

Turkey Trails - Fayetteville is a Thanksgiving-themed running event in Fayetteville, Arkansas, with choices from a short kids' dash up to a half marathon. The main menu covers 5K, 10K, and half marathon races, plus an untimed 1 Mile option and a Kid's Dash for children ages 10 and under. Races start at 8 a.m., and runners who cannot be there in person can choose a virtual option and still earn the event swag. The setup leans family-friendly rather than hardcore-only: kids get their own dash, children 12 and under have reduced pricing for the 5K and 10K, and kids can even run the dash for free if they skip the swag. Timed events use chip timing with live results and awards, while the 1 Mile and Kid's Dash stay untimed. Finishers receive items such as custom bibs, designer shirts, and medals, with free race photos and treats waiting after the finish.
