About the Event

Shake Off the Stuffing at the Trail Trot on Turkey Ridge!

Join us for a post-Thanksgiving challenge at the Trail Trot on Turkey Ridge in Wildwood, where the only leftovers are the miles you haven't conquered yet. This is no ordinary trot—it's a timed endurance event designed for those looking to burn off that holiday indulgence in a setting as wild as your Thanksgiving feast.

Turkey Ridge offers a scenic 1.8-mile loop with a leg-burning 347 ft of elevation gain per loop. You'll run counterclockwise, starting and finishing at the trailhead, with each loop daring you to push a little harder. Choose between a 2-hour or 4-hour race—because who needs another turkey trot when you can prove your mettle on the trails?

Awards await the top female, male and non-binary finishers in both time categories, but the real reward is showing that pumpkin pie who’s boss. All finishers receive a cozy hoodie. The race is capped at 75 participants, so secure your spot and get ready to make some room for those leftovers! Register by 11/14/25 to guarantee your swag!

St. Louis Track Club members can gobble up a $5 discount.

A portion of the proceeds for this race will be donated to a local non profit (TBD)
