2026 Black Mountain Turkey Burner Trail Race

Race Information

The Black Mountain Turkey Burner Trail Race is the most technical trail race on the ERS' Sunshine Series schedule, giving you a change to burn off any turkey (or tofurkey) you may have consumed over the holiday.

All runners will start and finish at the Black Mountain Community Park. Both the Half and 10K will experience some major "hill" climbing on some very technical trails, the 5K features some less technical and a little more groomed dirt trail.
