About the RCR Gobbler Turkey Trot - Little Rock's Turkey Trot
The Gobbler Turkey Trot runs Thanksgiving morning out of a shopping center on the north side of Little Rock, starting and finishing at a local running store. There are several road course options, all stroller and pet friendly. Traffic control is limited, so you are watching the roads yourself. The whole thing doubles as a food drive for the Arkansas Foodbank, and a food donation is your entry fee.
Santa is on-site to collect donations, and younger kids have their own short loop around the parking lot before the main event gets going. Water is available after you finish. Pre-registering gets you into prize drawings held on race morning.
