Get moving during the Run for Food, Chico’s annual Thanksgiving 5k Run/Walk.

The 3.1 mile course guides you through the beautiful Lower Bidwell Park. Colorful fall leaves and the sounds of the Big Chico Creek make for a memorable and gorgeous route. Start a new family tradition while supporting a great cause. 

Turkeys of all ages and abilities are welcome, whether you are a pro runner or you just want a slow stroll to enjoy the scenery. 

Bring your family and friends out to enjoy fresh air and community spirit before your Thanksgiving feast! Wear your turkey hats or fall-themed running gear and start your holiday off right. Register for the Thanksgiving Day classic here.

The Run for Food is a benefit fundraiser for the Jesus Center, a local nonprofit serving the unhoused community with hot meals, housing, and employment services.
