About the race
The Stuffed Turkey Endurance Races take place on November 21, 2026 at Jester Park in Granger, Iowa. This is the eighth running of the event and it is held entirely on trail with small rolling hills and a long flat section that will vary with weather.
Distances offered:
- 10 Mile
- 50K
- 50 Mile
- 100 Mile
The 50K, 50 Mile, and 100 Mile distances are UTMB index races. The course uses loops with 455 feet of elevation gain per loop, totaling 4,550 feet of ascent and descent over the 100 mile distance. The start location is Jester Park Equestrian Center. Aid stations are located at mile 5 and at the mile 10 start/finish area and will supply basic food and drink such as pizza, pop, rice and beans, potatoes, Gatorade, and GU.
Shirts and finishers medals are included; orders for shirts and swag are processed with a guarantee cutoff listed as November 1, 2022, and entries after that date are not guaranteed shirts. This is a cupless event: participants must bring their own cups, bottles, or packs for aid station fills.
For the 100 mile race, pacers may join at the start of the sixth lap (mile 50). Multiple pacers are allowed but each must complete a 10 mile loop. Dogs, bicycle pacers, and other non-human assists are not allowed except by case-by-case approval for those with physical or mental disabilities. Packet pickup is the Thursday before the race at Fleet Feet Des Moines, 521 E Locust St, Des Moines, IA. Registration closes Thursday, November 19 at 11:59 PM CT.
