Zoom Turkey Trot sa začína ráno na Deň vďakyvzdania v Hellyer County Parku v San Jose. Pobeží sa po Coyote Creek Trail a centrum pretekov bude pri Buena Vista Pavilion. Môžeš si vybrať z 5K, 10K alebo USATF-certified half marathonu. Pre deti do 6 rokov je zadarmo 50-yard Kids Run. Štarty sú rozfázované počas celého rána, začína sa Kids Runom, potom half marathon, 10K a nakoniec 5K. Sú aj samostatné kategórie na 5K a 10K pre mladších bežcov, takže je to super pre rodiny aj pre dospelých, čo si chcú na sviatky zabehnúť niečo dlhšie. Trať je väčšinou rovná, kompletne vyznačená a skoro celá asfaltová. 5K a 10K idú len po asfalte, ale half marathon má aj krátky single-track úsek. Občerstvovačky sú každé 2 až 4 míle a nájdeš tam ovocie, slané snacky, cukríky, vodu a ionťák. Preteky sú cupless, takže si musíš niesť vlastnú fľašu alebo pohár. Pravidlá na trati sú: predbiehať zľava s upozornením, slúchadlá dole na single tracku, pri prechodoch cez cestu, na občerstvovačkách a v cieli, a žiadne psy na trati. Každý dostane custom medailu, kto sa zaregistruje vopred, má aj tričko, a prví traja v každej vekovej kategórii dostanú ceny. Prví traja muži a ženy v každej vzdialenosti dostanú ocenenia a kredity na ďalšie preteky. A ako bonus k Deňu vďakyvzdania môžeš vyhrať aj moriaka.

The Morgan Hill AAUW Wildflower Run begins and ends at Live Oak High School. It features a 10K USATF-certified run, a 5K run/walk/stroller option, and 2K events on the school track. The 5K and 10K are flat, fast road races on local back roads. The 10K follows the same route as the 5K, adding a second loop. This annual, all-volunteer fundraiser for AAUW Morgan Hill can accommodate up to about 1,500 participants, an increase from the previous cap of 1,200. The race route was adjusted due to increased runner and vehicle traffic causing conflicts on Main Avenue and Condit Road. The revised course eliminates dangerous left turns onto and off Main Avenue, reducing the need for police assistance. The event typically nets around $65,000 after expenses. Funds are generated through registration fees, sponsors, and member donations, supporting scholarships for women and girls, grants for women’s organizations, and leadership programs. The event includes a 2K for children aged 5 to 10, a 2K run/walk for all ages, shirts, medals, goodie bags for children, stroller baby tees, entertainment along the route, complimentary photos, and a Finish Fest with refreshments, vendors, and youth activities.
