Bakersfield Turkey Day Run

The Bakersfield Turkey Day Run is an annual event held on Thanksgiving Day, featuring a 5k run/walk, a non-timed 1-mile walk, and a virtual run option. Taking place at The Park at River Walk, the event encourages families to kick off their holiday with some exercise before the festivities. Participants receive a long-sleeve Thanksgiving-themed shirt and a finisher's medallion, along with amenities like donuts for finishers and age group awards.

The event also supports the Bakersfield CAPK Food Bank, promoting community involvement and healthy living during the holiday season. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
