Fort Worth YMCA Turkey Trot Recap
Race Information
Work up an appetite and support the Fort Worth YMCA at the same time. Start your Thanksgiving Day off right with a 1k Gobbler Trot, 5k or 10k run around Camp Bowie Blvd in Fort Worth, TX. You can choose to be chip-timed or simply run or walk for fun. Strollers and dogs are welcome!
Proceeds from the Fort Worth YMCA Turkey Trot benefit the scholarship/youth program of the YMCA of Metropolitan Fort Worth. Persons who wish to utilize the services of the Y, but cannot afford them, are given assistance based on their needs. This allows the YMCA to say “Yes!” to those who otherwise would not be able to participate. The YMCA offers a complete continuum of services for all ages!
