Turkey Trail Trot & the Leftovers Race

Shelby Township, United States • 27-28 Nov 2025

Turkey Trail Trot & The Leftovers Race is a two-day Thanksgiving trail running event at Stony Creek Metropark in Shelby Township, Michigan. Thursday offers a Half Marathon plus 6ish Mile, 4 Mile, and 2 Mile courses; Friday adds 6ish Mile, 4 Mile, and 2 Mile. A 2-Day Bundle combines select distances.

Runners traverse 100% dirt trails—wide and single-track—through woods with leaves, rocks, roots, twists, and rolling hills. The atmosphere is family-friendly, with fire pits, finish-line snacks, and cup-free racing requiring participants to carry a personal hydration cup (Hydrapak cup included). Finishers earn two connectable medals; options include shirts, beanies, gloves, and pies for teams; proceeds support the park and local charity.
