About the event

We can't wait to see you this Thanksgiving Day!

For the past 33 years, hundreds of runners and walkers from near and far have made their way to Burgettstown to kick off Thanksgiving Day with the Turkey Trot 5K Run & Fitness Walk — and this year promises to be another memorable event!

🏃‍♀️ The Challenge
Participants brave the unpredictable Pennsylvania weather — whether it’s crisp and cold or surprisingly warm — and take on our infamous final climb: "the hill," a true test of grit before crossing the finish line back at the school.

💙 The Cause
Your participation directly supports the Burgettstown Cross Country and Track & Field programs, helping fund uniforms, meet fees, and training essentials for our student-athletes.

👟 The Community
The kids you’re supporting will be there — cheering you on, offering encouragement, and even pulling names for thank-you prize giveaways!

Come celebrate the season with friends, family, and fellow runners at one of the region’s most beloved Thanksgiving Day traditions. Whether you're racing for a PR or enjoying a morning walk, you're making a difference in the lives of our student-athletes.
