Press Release
It’s time for our 9th Annual Turkey Trot in Carbon County. This fun run is free to all interested participants. Come run, walk or bike the scenic out-and-back course at 8:30 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day.
Our route begins at the Carbon County Fairgrounds and Events Center and proceeds four miles out to the base of Pinnacle Peak and back. Whether you want to do one mile, three miles, eight miles or any distance in between, we have the mileage posted every half mile so you can choose whichever distance works best for you. Simply travel half the distance you want and then turn around and return to the start line.
Average temperature during the race is low 30s so please dress for the cold. Although there is no registration or entry fee, it is requested that participants each bring one canned food item to be collected and donated to the local food bank to assist in replenishing their post-holiday shelves.
