Message from Mayor Madden
On behalf of the City of Troy, I am delighted to welcome you to the 74th running of the Troy Turkey Trot. Our event, which was founded in 1916 as a remembrance run for veterans, is the nation’s 12th oldest road race and serves as a fantastic way to engage the entire community in celebrating fitness, family and tradition, at this year's 105th anniversary of the Troy Turkey Trot.
This year, we look forward to welcoming everyone back for an in-person event to celebrate the start of the holiday season. The health and well-being of runners is our primary concern, and we will work to create a safe environment for all participants.
The Troy Turkey Trot is one of our community’s premiere events which showcases our historic downtown and neighborhoods, and we look forward to continuing the traditions and excitement with all of you in downtown Troy on Thanksgiving morning!
Race Day App
The Troy Turkey Trot app uses technology that allows participants to run anywhere in the United States and be able to see where they are on the Troy Turkey Trot event course (as well as where they actually are), get live splits and see how their friends and family are doing on the Turkey Trot course. You will receive an email after registering for the event inviting you to the app, to claim your profile and to get prepped for race day!
