All of the City garages are open and free on Thanksgiving morning.

Yes, we are dog-friendly! We do ask that you start near the back and use your best judgment with the crowd. We are also stroller-friendly!

No, all little ones are welcome. Only register them if you want to buy a shirt and bib for them.

Yes, the Turkey Trot 5k is chip-timed.

No, there is not a formal time limit. We expect everyone to be done within 90 minutes based on our past experiences.

Yes, we can use all the volunteers we can get! If you volunteer, you can receive a free entry to Beer City Santa Rosa, which takes place in February. Sign up here. 

Oh yes! You absolutely should! We will choose folks in costume for special gifts on race day. Post yourself running in turkey garb and tag us at #bishopranchturkeytrot and we may send you something nifty. 

There are prizes for the top three male and female finishers (13 and above) and the top three young male and female finishers (0 - 12). We do not offer Age Group Awards, though all age group categories are reported in our results.

Yes, feel free to come on race day and we will sign you up!

We practice radical acceptance of deferrals and transfers. You can defer or transfer at any time up until race day (but not after the race has taken place.) This includes gifting your registration to a friend. 

Here are your options. You can:

• Defer until next year's race. We sign you up automatically after registration opens for next year's race.
• Transfer your race to a friend. They can come and enjoy a good time.
• Transfer to any other of our events between now and a year from now. You join us in the future!

All of these options are available to you by selecting Manage Registration in your profile. Here is a little tutorial on how to manage your registration. It's all free of charge. 

As to refunds, we don't offer cash refunds under any circumstance. Please consider purchasing race insurance at checkout. This is exactly what it's here for.
