Turkey Trails- Greater Atlanta

Turkey Trails- Greater Atlanta is a Thanksgiving-themed morning in Atlanta, Georgia, on November 21, 2026, with every start at 8:00 a.m. The schedule covers a half marathon (13.1 miles), a 10K, a 5K, an untimed one-mile run and a Kids Dash for children under 10. The timed races use electronic timing with live results, and entry brings a branded shirt, a custom bib and a personalized medal. Free photos and finish-line treats are included, youth rates are available, and a virtual option lets you run it from anywhere.

With everything leaving at once, the practical decision is where to stand on the line rather than which wave to join. Walkers and slower runners in the mile should start toward the back to let the half-marathon field get away. As for preparation, the 5K needs little beyond regular running, the 10K rewards one faster session a week, and the half marathon deserves a full 12-week build with a weekly long run taken out to 10 or 11 miles before you ease off in the final week.
