About this event
The Skinny Raven Turkey Trot is Anchorage's Thanksgiving-morning community run and walk, offering 5K and 2-mile options with an indoor finish line inside the Dena'ina Civic & Convention Center to keep everyone warm. The 5K starts at 10:30 AM and the 2-mile at 10:40 AM from downtown Anchorage. It is a festive, all-ages event that doubles as a food drive: proceeds and donations support the Food Bank of Alaska, with a stated 2026 goal of $15,000 and 1,000 pounds of food. Participants can register individually, together for group discounts, or as fundraising teams, with incentives like drawings for those who raise additional donations. Entry fees range from about $22 to $42 depending on age and how early you register. Whether you run, jog, or walk, it is a warm-hearted way to give back and get moving before the holiday, and the heated indoor finish is a welcome perk in late-November Alaska.
