Event Details
The Get Basted Turkey Trot Half Marathon is scheduled for Sunday, November 22, 2026. It is part of an event offering multiple in-person distances: 5K, 10K, 15K, and Half Marathon. There are also virtual options for each of these distances. The event takes place at North Forsyth Middle School on 3645 Coal Mountain Drive in Cumming, Georgia.
Course
The course consists of a 3.1-mile (5K) loop. The Half Marathon is run as four laps of this loop plus a short additional section. The terrain is described as fairly flat, though the organizers note it is in North Georgia, so nothing is completely flat. The event is electronically timed. Water stations are self-serve and placed approximately every 1.5 miles. A minimum pace of 16 minutes per mile is required to finish.

There is a special offer for runners who finished any of the organizer's events between December 1, 2025, and November 13, 2026: they qualify for one complimentary in-person Turkey Trot entry.

- Long sleeve shirts for $22 ($25 race day)
- Hoodies for $27 ($30 race day)
