Quarry Turkey is a running race on November 28–29, 2026 in Fremont, CA, with entry fees from $62 to $95.
From the Organizer
The rarely seen Quarry Turkey will make his appearance two days after the big feast, fueled-up and ready to take on all the little turkeys! Come start a new Thanksgiving weekend tradition with a fast, mostly-flat half marathon, 10K or 5K!
Little Turkeys Race (about 100 yards or so) is free to all children brought with race participants.
Once again, we are also holding a food drive benefiting Alameda County Food Bank and are encouraging all participants (including little turkeys) to bring at least one canned good on race morning.
