Far in the distance, away from the bright lights of the Strip, the Las Vegas Turkey Trot, now in its 14th year, runs along an old railroad line through Lake Mead Recreation Area. Runners pass through the Six Tunnels to Hoover Dam—a landmark that’s often depicted on the finisher’s medal. Age group prizes and the custom overall awards are just as unique as the course terrain. Choose your distance, from half marathon, 12K, 5K, or 1-mile— and run or walk the Historic Railroad Trail on Thanksgiving morning. Every distance showcases views of Lake Mead, one of the largest man-made lakes in the world.

There will be no parking available at the Hoover Dam Lodge Hotel this year. Parking will be at the Vetran's Memorial Park 1650 Buchanan Blvd, Boulder City, NV
A shuttle service will run from the traffic circle out front. The commute is 15mins, with shuttle leaving every 10-15mins. Please keep this in your planning for the morning.
