General Details
 
When is Carson Valley Turkey Trot?
Carson Valley Turkey Trot will have both an in person and virtual option this year.
In person: Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 25th

What is a virtual race?
A virtual race is a race that can be completed anytime and anywhere. Carson Valley Turkey Trot has a race completion time of nearly three weeks (Monday, November 8th – Thanksgiving Day, November 25th). With a virtual race you can avoid parking problems, crowds, using a sani-hut, bad weather, etc.  Running a race on your own time and your own terms gives you the most flexibility. Anyone of any age can participate.
