Earn your pie before dinner at the 13th annual Frisco Turkey Day 5K on Thanksgiving morning, Thursday, November 26, 2026, starting at 9:30 a.m. from Frisco's Old Community Center.
This relaxed, untimed fun run loops along the Summit County Recreation Path and town side streets at more than 9,000 feet. Strollers and leashed dogs are welcome, and the course is plowed "as conditions allow," so expect a true winter run.
Afterward, the party moves to 3rd Ave & Granite St with Butterhorn Bakery treats, mini pies from Saved by the Wine, coffee and cocoa, plus a "Chance Auction" of prizes donated by local businesses. Every runner who picks up a bib gets a commemorative gift.
The race doubles as a food drive for the Family & Intercultural Resource Center (FIRC) — every five items donated earns an extra drawing ticket — and part of the proceeds support the Frisco Elementary STEM program. Presented by The Steadman Clinic.
