About the race
The EOD Fairfax Turkey Trot at Lake Fairfax offers organized 5 km and 10 km running options on a scenic post Thanksgiving route. Points earned at the event count toward the Year‑Long 5k, 10k, and Back of the Pack series and toward the Fall Series.
Runners receive a finisher's medal, a technical Drifit event shirt, and chip timing. A virtual race option is available for participants who cannot attend in person.
The course is hilly with some technical trail sections. About one third of the route is an out‑and‑back section at the beginning and end. The 10 km course consists of two laps of the 5 km course. Water stations are placed along the courses: six stations on the 10 km course at approximately miles 0.6, 1.55, 2.5, 3.7, 4.65 and 5.6, and three stations on the 5 km course at approximately miles 0.6, 1.55 and 2.5. Gatorade will be available at some water stations. Port a john restrooms are located around the park.
Awards are given to the top three men and women overall and to first and second place in multiple age categories from 19 and under through 70 plus. Live results are posted on Athlinks and final results with series points are published after the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
