DALLAS YMCA TURKEY TROT
The heartwarming tradition of giving thanks takes on an energetic twist as runners gear up for the 56th Annual Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot! Hosted by the Dallas YMCA, a non-profit org dedicated to youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility, this event has become a cornerstone of Thanksgiving Day festivities in North Texas!
P.S. The funds raised from the Turkey Trot go towards supporting the Dallas YMCA's community health programs, including chronic disease prevention & childhood obesity initiatives.
TURKEY TROT DETAILS
Online registration is now open and closes on Nov 22nd, but you can also register on race day from 7 am to 8:15 am if you forget! Choose from an 8-mile race, a 5k run/walk, or the option to trot virtually from home!
And don’t leave your furry friends behind! Dress up your pups in their most festive attire for a special dog-friendly trot, as long as they’re leashed! Race medals will be awarded to the first 750 dogs that cross the 5K finish line. You can also join in on the fun with the trot's costume contest for a chance to win a one-year membership to the YMCA!
RACE DAY
Festivities start at 7 am in downtown front of Dallas City Hall and continue until 12 pm on Thanksgiving day…rain or shine! So register, grab your friends & family, and run (or walk) into Thanksgiving at the annual turkey trot!
