About the race
On Thanksgiving Day in Houston, the Houston Methodist Turkey Trot brings thousands to Uptown Houston near The Galleria for a family-friendly race-filled morning. The event offers multiple distances: a 5K Run/Walk, a 10K Run/Walk, a Kids Run, and a Virtual option, appealing to both seasoned runners and first-timers. Known locally as a Thanksgiving Day tradition, participants enjoy a festive atmosphere as they move through the Uptown area.
The event, supported by sponsors like Houston Methodist, Northern Trust, and others, uses the “Wobble & Gobble” branding for the 5K and 10K, with separate Kids Run and Virtual races. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
