About the Event

Get ready to run, walk, and gobble your way through the heart of Parker County!

The Weatherford Turkey Trot, hosted by the Young Business Leaders of Weatherford, is a fun, family-friendly Thanksgiving morning tradition created to bring our community together while giving back to a great local cause.

Whether you’re chasing a PR, enjoying a morning walk with friends, or bringing the kids out for their very first race, there’s a place for everyone at the Turkey Trot!

The 5K course will wind through the Parker County Historic District, giving you a chance to experience some of our community’s beautiful and historic streets while getting your Thanksgiving morning miles in.

The 5K will have a 1 hour and 30 minute time limit, so there’s plenty of time to run, walk, or enjoy the course at your own pace.
