Start Thanksgiving Day off on the right foot at the Applied Materials Silicon Valley Turkey Trot in downtown San Jose.
Before the big games, the big meal, the parades and the pies why not get in a little exercise with a few thousand neighbors? It's an event the whole family will enjoy. Many have made the "run" or "walk" a Thanksgiving Day tradition. You'll also be giving "thanks" by helping the Santa Clara Family Health Foundation, Second Harvest Food Bank and the Housing Trust of Santa Clara County. These charities provide families with their most basic needs for "health, hope and a home." The Silicon Valley Turkey Trot, founded and produced by the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, is in its 5th year and the total amount given to charity is expected to top $1 million by the time the last participant crosses the finish line. There are several runs and walks to choose from in the 5K and 10K range, along with a kid's fun run. Elite runners, joggers and walkers will enjoy the downtown San Jose course, which is flat, fast and flows through neighborhoods and business areas. New this year will be a special "Costume" run.
