The 10th annual Pacific Palisades Turkey Trot powered by reaktr.ai returns to Palisades Charter High School on Thanksgiving Day, November 28.
The holiday 5K and 10K event will start promptly at 8 a.m. and is expected to draw 2,200 participants and 2,500 spectators across Pacific Palisades in what has become a community tradition dating back to 2013.
Each runner will receive a complimentary swag bag containing an event T-shirt, a chip-timed bib and other gift items. Results will be posted shortly after the race at paliturkeytrot.com/results.
Area organizations supported by the race include Friendship Circle Pacific Palisades and Los Angeles Fire Department Stations 23 and 69.
Event sponsors include Hästens, Equinox, Palisades Village, Bay Theater and Friendship Circle.
Packet pick-up will be at the Swarthmore Room at Palisades Village in the three days leading up to the event—Monday (November 25), Tuesday (November 26) and Wednesday (November 27).
Event organizers strongly urge runners to come to Palisades Village one of those days to pick up their gear early to avoid lines on Thanksgiving morning. Street closures will be in place from 5:30 to 11 a.m.
The race will start and finish at the 50-yard line at Stadium by the Sea. The 10K race course has been altered in 2024 to avoid the closure of Temescal Canyon Road.
