Turkey Run 2025

header.jpg


Word must’ve spread through the coop, because 20,000 feathered fugitives just pulled off the most chaotic escape in poultry history - The Great Turkey Train Derailment. Now they’re loose, running wild, and flapping havoc across city streets. As any good prison drama fan knows, the weakest point in any chain of custody is transportation… and these birds knew it too.

The world can’t handle a full-blown turkey takeover - the droppings alone could cause an urban crisis - and let’s not forget that Turkeys are serial rule-breakers and professional peace disrupters. So, we’re taking action. But we’re not monsters. Every Turkey caught will be safely transferred to TURSEC (Turkey Security Program - an official initiative ensuring the health, safety, and long-term protection of all captured Turkeys and their families). Because we’re Bees, not villains.

The problem? Turkeys are absurdly hard to catch. They’re fast, unpredictable, and can pivot like professional athletes on caffeine. If not for the feathers and the chaos, they’d make the perfect fitness trainers. To round up all 20,000, you’ll need speed, agility, endurance, and maybe a sprinkle of luck. Fortunately, we’ve equipped you with three ways to chase them down.

So take a deep breath, stretch those wings, and join the Turkey Run - the wildest 48-hour pursuit of the year. The flock is loose, the chase is on, and only the fastest Bees can restore order!

Turkey Run - Event Complete!

The Great Turkey Train Derailment has officially come to an end - and what a spectacular 48-hour chase it was. Our brave Bees took to the streets and living rooms, doing their absolute best to out-run, out-maneuver, and out-smart the world’s most chaotic feathered fugitives.

And the results are in.

Together, we caught 4,842 turkeys before the event timer hit zero.
The remaining 15,158? They pulled off a second escape that would make any action movie director proud. They scattered, they sprinted, they zig-zagged, and - true to their nature - they broke every rule of reasonable behavior on their way out.

We’ll consider them… free-range, for now.

Every captured Turkey has already been safely transferred to TURSEC (Turkey Security Program), where they’ll receive the full Bee standard of care: quality nesting, emotional support, and strict supervision to prevent further poultry-related chaos. The good news? Not a single Feathered Felon escaped from TURSEC custody. Progress!

Thank you to everyone who participated, butt kicked, high kneed and burpeed after the invisible birds across the world. Your energy, your enthusiasm, and your willingness to jump head-first into pure silliness are what make Hive events unforgettable.

Until the next great escape… rest up, hydrate, and keep your eyes open.
You never know what creature will make a break for it next.
