About the Cincinnati Turkey Trot Half Marathon & 5K

This is a Thanksgiving morning race in Cincinnati, with both a half marathon and a shorter option for those who want something quick before the meal. The holiday timing shapes the start: streets quieter than usual, air cooler, and a certain energy that comes from running while most people are still asleep.
