Run a Solo 4K, or with a Team
4K Solo Runners and Walkers participate as individuals.
4K Team members consist of 4 team members tethered together for the first 2K; the entire team drops the tether cord at 2K, and each team member runs the final 2K independently. Team Score by places compare with other teams for Team Placings. All four team members score in this event to complete the placings.
Boise Striders made this a very enjoyable event for 35 years. Canyon Track Club intends to keep that spirit alive! Run or Walk as a team with your buddies; with your gal pals; as a family; with three other people you just met. Or you can come and run in your pajamas if you like!
Turkey Trot 4K Course
For the record, 4 Kilometers is almost exactly 2.49 Miles! The course is mostly soft surface on grass.
The START LINE is located behind the press box side of the stadium on a grass surface. The course runs a perimeter around the most of the athletic complex and through the outfield area of the softball fields. From there the course winds its way onto the Track, taking participants up to the 2K mark, where teams drop the tether. Complete the second lap, and finish on the FINISH LINE on the Track.
Packet Pickup
Packet Pickup is available 8:15AM on the morning of the Run/Walk within meters of the start line.
Race Run/Walk starts at 9:00AM.
