About the Houston Methodist Turkey Trot
The race starts and finishes along Post Oak near the Galleria, a busy commercial corridor with wide sidewalks and flat pavement. It is an urban morning run, and the area fills up early with families and solo runners spread across several distance options.
Packet pickup runs through the week before the race at a local sports retailer on Westheimer, with a short window available on race morning as well. The start is outside Dillard's, so the staging area is easy to find, and a post-race party runs through mid-morning nearby.
