About the Ellis County TURKEY TROT

The course runs along Getzendaner Park Trail on Thanksgiving morning, with several distance options so people choose how far they want to go. The trail setting keeps things grounded, away from traffic and pavement, and the holiday timing means the crowd tends to include a fair number of costumed runners alongside those who are just there to move before the meal.
