From the Organizer
Start your Thanksgiving morning with one of Huntington County's favorite holiday traditions!
Join hundreds of runners, walkers, families, and friends for the Pathfinder Turkey Trot & Family Waddle on Thanksgiving morning. Whether you're chasing a personal best, walking with your family, pushing a stroller, or simply looking for a fun way to kick off the holiday, there's a place for everyone.
The chip-timed Turkey Trot 5K welcomes both runners and walkers, while the Family Waddle is a fun, one-mile walk designed for children, grandparents, strollers, and anyone looking for a shorter, family-friendly experience.
The race begins and ends at Pathfinder's Administrative Offices, taking participants on a scenic course around beautiful Pehkokia Woods and past the Izaak Walton League before returning to the finish line.
More than just a race, the Turkey Trot has become a Thanksgiving morning tradition that brings our community together before family gatherings begin. Every registration helps support the children, families, and educational programming at Pathfinder's Early Learning Center, helping provide young learners with the strongest possible start in life.
Start your Thanksgiving with gratitude, community, and purpose. We can't wait to celebrate with you! 🦃
