Event summary

Get ready for the much-anticipated Granite Bay Turkey Trot on Thursday, November 27th, 2025! This exciting event will take place in the picturesque Granite Bay, Placer, starting at 7:30 AM from Wellington Way in front of Granite Bay High School. This family-friendly race features two distances: a delightful 3K fun run/walk and a challenging 6K course that completes two loops of the 3K route. Participants will enjoy a scenic journey along pedestrian sidewalks through East Roseville Parkway, Hillsborough Drive, and Eureka Road, all while being lightly traffic controlled for safety.

Although the official event is currently sold out with a cap of 100 participants, there’s still an opportunity for enthusiastic runners to join in unofficially and enjoy the festive atmosphere! Each registration includes a bib, t-shirt, medal, and access to post-race snacks and refreshments. With the potential for future events to accommodate even more participants, the Granite Bay Turkey Trot promises to be a delightful way to kick off your Thanksgiving celebrations while supporting a great cause, benefiting the Fieldhaven Feline Center in Lincoln. Don’t miss out on this vibrant community event!

Organiser's Description

THE GRANITE BAY TURKEY TROT IS CURRENTLY SOLD OUT FOR 2025. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE HAD MORE PEOPLE, BUT I HAD TO CAP IT OFF AT 100 PEOPLE BECAUSE I ONLY ORDERED 100 BIBS, 100 SHIRTS, AND 100 MEDALS. I DID NOT EXPECT THE DEMAND TO BE SO HIGH, AND THE DEMAND DID NOT RISE UNTIL THE FINAL 2 WEEKS OF REGISTRATION, AND THERE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ENOUGH TIME TO ORDER MORE SHIRTS, BIBS, AND MEDALS AND FOR ALL PRODUCTS TO ARRIVE ON TIME BEFORE THE RACE AND PACKET PICKUP. LASTLY, I WAS NOT ABLE TO SECURE CHIP TIMING SO WE ARE ONLY DOING GUN TIMING FOR THIS RACE AND SO I HAD TO CAP IT OFF AT 100 PEOPLE. FOR 2026, I HOPE TO SECURE CHIP TIMING GOING FORWARD SO WE CAN ACCOMMODATE MORE PEOPLE, AND IN FUTURE YEARS, WOULD LOVE TO HAVE UP TO 300 PEOPLE.

THOSE WISHING TO STILL PARTICIPATE MAY DO SO UNOFFICIALLY AND FOR FREE BUT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE A BIB OR A MEDAL. I WILL HAVE EXTRA SHIRTS ON HAND FOR PURCHASE FOR THE UNOFFICIAL FOLKS IF THERE IS A SURPLUS IN SHIRTS ONCE THE EVENT HAS STARTED. AGAIN SPOTS WILL BE GIVEN ON A FIRST COME FIRST SERVE BASIS AND ONLY BASED OFF OF THE NUMBER OF NO-SHOWS OF OFFICIAL PARTICIPANTS AND ONLY ONCE THE RACE HAS STARTED.

THANKS!!!
