Kirkwood-Webster Turkey Day Run

A beloved Thanksgiving-morning tradition in the Kirkwood and Webster Groves communities, this run is now in its mid-40s by count of annual editions. Thousands of neighbors, families, and out-of-town relatives start the holiday with a brisk run or walk from the Kirkwood Farmers' Market before heading home to feast. It is a friendly, all-ages event with a costume-and-community feel rather than a hyper-competitive race, though timed. Register in advance online; the event page has the morning schedule, packet pickup, and course map. A great way to earn your turkey.
