Turkey Trails - Memphis

Turkey Trails - Memphis runs in Memphis, Tennessee, on November 22, 2026, with a half marathon (13.1 miles), a 10K, a 5K, a one-mile run and a Kid's Dash all starting at 8:00 a.m. Entry includes a branded shirt, a bib and a personalized medal, with electronic timing and live results on the competitive distances. Free photos and refreshments follow the finish, youth rates apply to younger entrants, there is a dedicated race for children under ten, and a virtual option covers anyone who cannot attend in person.

This is a family event first, which is the right way to read it when choosing a distance: nobody has to sit out, and the shorter formats are there to be enjoyed rather than raced. If you do want a competitive run, the 10K is the sweet spot for someone training three or four times a week. The half marathon is the only distance here that needs a real plan, and twelve weeks with a weekly long run stretched toward 11 miles will cover it.
