About the ODO Gobbler Run & Ruck
The course runs through farmland on the outskirts of South Glastonbury, keeping to trails the whole way. You start and finish at Hops on the Hill Brewery, so the post-race scene has a natural anchor. Participants can run or ruck, choosing between a shorter or longer distance, and there is a kids run as well.
The finish line party is the main draw after you cross: chili in meat and veggie versions, s'mores, and a pour from the brewery. Packet pickup runs the evening before at a local running store in Glastonbury. Ruckers are encouraged to carry canned goods or peanut butter to donate to a veterans food pantry at the finish.

The ODO Gobbler Run & Ruck has been held every year since at least 2023. 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 18, 2026.
