Silicon Valley Turkey Trot

Lace up your running shoes and pre-burn those mashed potato calories at the Applied Materials Silicon Valley Turkey Trot, the largest Thanksgiving Day race in America. Whether you are aiming for a personal best in the 5K or 10K, or just trying to keep up with your toddlers in the Kids Fun Run, this massive block party in Downtown San Jose offers the perfect blend of fitness and festive cheer. Taking over the streets near West Santa Clara and First Street, this beloved holiday tradition not only helps you start the season on the right foot but also raises vital funds for local charities like the Healthier Kids Foundation and Second Harvest of Silicon Valley. Throw on your wackiest turkey costume, soak in the electric community atmosphere, and earn that extra slice of pumpkin pie while making a real difference in the lives of vulnerable families.
