About the Maryville Turkey Trot
The course runs through Drost Park, a straightforward route that suits runners who want a holiday-morning effort without a complicated layout. The terrain is park-style, and the race draws people who want to move before the meal rather than chase a personal best. Proceeds go to a local high school cross country team, which gives the morning a clear purpose.
Packet pickup opens at the park pavilion on race morning, so there is no need to come out the day before. Age group awards go deep into the field, covering a wide range of categories for both men and women.
