Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot
REGISTER IN ADVANCE, OR THE MORNING OF THE RACE.
The Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot is a 5K fun run held annually in Elmhurst on Thanksgiving Day. The event raises money to feed the hungry and provides nearly 3 million meals to those who are struggling to feed their families. All funds stay in DuPage County to support the event’s mission of feeding the hungry. The Turkey Trot, which has become part of Elmhurst’s history, brings together the community on a day that many have a lot to be thankful for.
