29th Annual
Greensburg Turkey Trot
November 16-26, 2020
What's the Turkey Trot?
The Turkey Trot is a 5K run/walk held every year in Greensburg, PA on Thanksgiving Day. This event was created by five friends who ran every day at lunch. They created a non-profit called Westmoreland Community Sharing to develop this race and 29 years later, their event is still going strong! When you participate in the trot, you are supporting multiple non-profits in your community.
Everyone is encouraged to participate! Serious and casual runners, competitive and casual walkers, and family and friends of ALL AGES.
Race Start Times
Runners: Anytime, anywhere from November 16 to November 26, 2020
