Galloping Gobbler Race Description

The Galloping Gobbler has become Fort Wayne’s new family tradition for Thanksgiving. Make room for the turkey and trimmings by running the four mile Galloping Gobbler course. The four miler starts at the Hutzell Athletic Center on the campus of the University of Saint Francis and then takes you through Fort Wayne’s historic Lindenwood Cemetery before finishing back at campus.

Music, a live turkey, a costume turkey mascot, chip timing, and over 2000 runners make this a time to share with family and friends.
