Norpoint Turkey Trot
The Norpoint Turkey Trot is an annual Thanksgiving fun run presented by Parks Tacoma. It takes place in northeast Tacoma and begins and ends at the Center at Norpoint on Thursday, November 26, 2026. The event offers both a chip timed run and a walk on paved trails and includes a 3k and a 5k course.
The course is stroller friendly and allows leashed dogs. Ages 5 and under join free when accompanied by a registered adult. Race results are posted online within 48 hours after the event. Top finishers in the 3k and 5k are recognized by category for awards.
Registrations include a commemorative race bib, a sticker, a medal, and a t shirt unless the t shirt option is declined. A limited number of extra shirts will be available for purchase during packet pickup and on race day for fifteen dollars plus tax. Early registration rates apply during specified windows and increase closer to the event; day of registration may be available if the event has not reached capacity.
Packet pickup is scheduled the day before the race and on race day. A NE Tacoma food drive runs November 2 through December 18 with a list of requested items accepted at the Center at Norpoint and at a collection table near the start on race day.
Refunds follow the stated policy with reduced or no refunds after specific dates. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
