The original beginnings of the overwhelmingly successful Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot began with a competitive race at White Rock Lake with 107 participants.
Now at over 36,500 participants, we have maintained the original distance of 8 miles and have seen some of the world’s best runners compete in our 8 miler.
This event has created a tradition of outstanding participants including Olympians and local champions who have put Dallas on the map as a national locale for exceptional talent. Also, those who “graduated” from our 3 mile event and runners from all over the state and nation are counted among those who traverse our beautiful, distinctively Dallas course.
The 8 Mile Race begins Thanksgiving Day, November 25, 2010 at 9am (wheelchairs at 8:59am).
