10k Turkey Trek & 5k Turkey Trot - Now With HALF MARATHON DISTANCE!

🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

• Unique Concept: This is not your run of the mill 'Turkey Trot.' This is the 10k Turkey TREK!
• Challenge: Are you up for the challenge? Run a steady uphill climb to the summit of the course at the 3 mile mark.
• Egg Nog Chug: Poised at the top of the hill is the infamous EGG NOG CHUG Challenge where racers have the option to chug 5 oz of eggnog.
• Alpine Views: It's windy and wild at the top and the limitless views are UNMATCHED.

🎉 Challenges Ahead

• Ridge Run: Run the ridge for a mile before starting the more gradual, yet still winding, descent down the east side of the mesa.
• Flat Straight-away: Once down the hill, racers encounter a relatively flat straight-away peppered with HAY BALES for the hay bale hop challenge.
• Final Challenge: Runners find the final challenge - just one kilometer from the finish: Fill Your Pie Hole Challenge.
• Pumpkin Pie: A fresh portion of holiday pumpkin pie awaits racers there.

🥇 New Half Marathon Distance

• More Training: We know that some of you require a bit more training before attempting the 10k loop.
• Additional Options: 5k and 2k distances are also offered, with a small 'taste' of the full course of challenges!
• Half Turkey: New this year, the HALF TURKEY visits all the challenges offered to the 10k Trek runners, and adds some mileage to get you to the 13.1 mile distance.
• Commemorative Mug: HALF TURKEY finishers receive a MUG at the finish line to commemorate their accomplishments!
