About the event

Please join the Moraga Chamber of Commerce on Thanksgiving morning for the annual Moraga Turkey Trot! Gobble-Wobble your way out to the cart path at Moraga Country Club wearing your favorite zany costume, activewear or even PJs! You can push a pram, set up a run squad or saunter solo, but just be sure to bring your community spirit!

The morning will include “unofficial” timed 5K and 1.5m races, awards for best Thanksgiving-themed costume, each race's speediest turkey, as well as random bib number draws to earn prizes from local businesses. (Be sure to check your bib number on the board on race day to see if you're a prize winner!)  

Runners, walkers and lollygaggers of all ages are welcome, but advance registration is required. Unfortunately, we cannot take registrations on-site. Registrants receive a T-shirt (sizes & tees not guaranteed - see registration details), a numbered running bib and goodies, while they last! Participants will check the digital timer at START/FINISH for self-timing. Come enjoy this wholesome tradition and celebrate Thanksgiving morning together! You do not need to be a member of the Chamber or the Country Club to participate.
