Southern Oregon Runners Turkey Trot

Southern Oregon Runners Turkey Trot is a community Thanksgiving race held in Talent, Oregon, at Cummins, 300 W Valley View Rd. The event offers three main distances: an 8-mile Turkey Trot, a 5k, and a 2-mile Run/Walk, plus a Free Turkey Dash for kids 8 and under. The atmosphere centers on giving back, with a food drive for the SOU food bank and a portion of proceeds supporting SOR Student Runners Programs, including Shoes for Kids, KidsRunFree, and XC Project.

Courses run on public roads and trails not closed to traffic. No dogs or bikes are allowed. Packet pickup occurs prior to race day, with no day-of registration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
