Zoom Turkey Trot

Run along the popular Coyote Creek trail Thanksgiving morning and stand to win a turkey!  

The Half Marathon course is USATF certified (CA21023TEB).

In an effort to reduce waste and litter, Coastal/Zoom events are cupless. We request that you bring your preferred means of containing fluids during your run and at the aid stations. We will have some Hydrapak SpeedCup ($5) for sale at check-in.

Please note that there are no pre-filled cups of hydration at the aid stations. In case you really need a disposable cup, please request one from the aid station volunteers. We ask that you use only one. Thank you!

We use state-of-the-art Bibtags by MyLaps to accurately time each runner’s finish time. We always start on time and use "Gun Time". Results are published on the website every 10 minutes.

T-shirts will be given to all pre-registered runners. All finishers will receive a custom medal.

Overall Winners: The top 3 male and female overall winners of every distance will win an award and race credits to future Coastal races:

1st Place - $50
2nd Place - $35
3rd Place - $20

These race credits are valid for 3 months from date of issue and is for one time use only.

Top three finishers in each age group and gender will receive award medals.
