About the race
Kick off your Thanksgiving morning with a beloved Parkersburg tradition! Since 1979, the Parkersburg Turkey Trot has brought families, friends, and runners together for a scenic run or walk through City Park. What began under Dr. Gary Ogilvie’s direction and carried on by Joe Corra continues today as a festive blend of friendly competition and family fun. The first male and female finishers each take home a LARGE fresh turkey and a unique Turkey Trot hoodie, and all registered participants are entered into drawings for 50+ door prizes with winners posted after the race. You can pick up your official Turkey Trot shirt or register at the Wood County Rec Building in the City Park on Wednesday before Thanksgiving from 10 AM to 6 PM or Thanksgiving morning from 7 AM to 8:45 AM—but register early to guarantee your shirt! Join us for one of Parkersburg’s most enduring and heartwarming traditions this Thanksgiving morning!
