About the Meyer Brothers & Sons Hamilton Turkey Trot
The race starts and finishes at Marcum Park, along the riverfront in Hamilton, and draws the full Thanksgiving morning crowd: serious runners chasing age group awards, people in costume competing for team prizes, and families pushing strollers. There are distance options for adults and a free Kids Fun Run. Proceeds go to a local charity that supports parenting teens.
Packet pickup runs the day before at an events center downtown. If you miss that, there is race-morning pickup at a nearby hotel before the start. No pets on the course, service dogs excepted.

The Meyer Brothers & Sons Hamilton Turkey Trot has been held every year since at least 2020. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
