About the NCMC Turkey Trot
This is a Thanksgiving morning race that runs a USATF-certified course through Greeley. The route is designed for all paces, and strollers and wagons are welcome as long as an adult is managing them. Proceeds support cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation programs, so there is real purpose behind the entry fee.
Packet pickup happens at North Colorado Medical Center in the days before the race, with a short window on race morning as well. When you go to pick up, enter through the east side of the building and expect to walk through a security scanner before you get inside.

The NCMC Turkey Trot has been held every year since at least 2025. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
