About the Wayzata Turkey Trot
The course starts and finishes near the high school stadium, looping out through the neighborhoods to the north before returning to campus. The terrain is street running on a relatively flat route, the kind of neighborhood loop where you pass front yards and bare trees on a quiet Thanksgiving morning.
After the run, there is music and post-race refreshments at the finish area near the stadium, so there is a little time to linger before everyone heads off for the rest of the day. Packet pickup is bundled with race-morning registration.

The Wayzata Turkey Trot has been held every year since at least 2024. 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.
