The Wild Turkey

The Wild Turkey is a Thanksgiving Day trail race taking place on November 28, 2024, in Granite Bay, California. Participants can choose between a 5K and a 10K race, both set against the scenic backdrop of Folsom Lake's trails. The event promotes family participation, welcoming runners, walkers, and even strollers for the 5K.

A free 1K Kids Fun Run is also available for children under six. Proceeds benefit Folsom's Hope, a local organization supporting families in need. The race emphasizes community spirit, fitness, and gratitude, culminating in a post-race celebration with refreshments and music. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
