Issaquah Turkey Trot 2026

About the event

The Issaquah Turkey Trot 5K is a fun, casual, all-ages event benefitting the crucial work of the Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank to provide food and vital resources in East King County. 

When? Thanksgiving Morning @ 9 a.m.
Where? Downtown Issaquah

 
Kids can participate in a “Gobble Wobble” along the route, and trotters often show their spirit with Thanksgiving-themed costumes and accessories as they run, walk, stroll, or trot a three-mile course through the heart of picturesque downtown Issaquah. 
 
 We welcomed over 5,000 trotters in 2025, and we are hoping to see another great turnout this year as our community rallies behind such an important cause.

All registrations include a race bib and t-shirt (t-shirt sizes only guaranteed for Early Bird registrations by October 30).

$35    11 and up – Now through October 30
$40    11 and up – October 31-November 25
$45    11 and up – Thanksgiving Day
$15    10 and under*

*Infants and toddlers only need to be registered if a t-shirt is desired.
