The morning

There’s a place for you at the starting line.

From the lawn to Camelback views to the festival finish — here’s how Thanksgiving morning actually goes.

Show up

Thanksgiving morning in Scottsdale. Friends finding friends, kids bouncing, the lawn already loud before anyone starts moving.
Start line

Walk it. Jog it. Run it. Push the stroller. First 5K or chasing a PR — there’s a place for you at the starting line.
The 5K

A beautiful, intentionally designed course through Scottsdale with Camelback Mountain in view the whole way.
Finish

Cross the line — then don’t go home. The finish turns into the morning you actually came for.
Festival

Live DJ, sauna, cold plunge, food, recovery, vendors, arts and crafts — four communities sharing one lawn.
Hang

Stay. Recover. Catch your people. Move together before we gather together.

Who We Are

Four communities. One morning.

Scottsdale Turkey Trot is all about coming together — uniting Scottsdale Run Club, Phoenix Run Club, Black AZ Run, and Revival Wellness to host the most energetic, community-driven Thanksgiving morning event in Arizona.

Not a race company that picked Thanksgiving off a calendar. Four communities that already run and recover together, putting on the morning they wanted to go to.
