Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot 2026 — Elmhurst, IL
Course & Travel Notes
The Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot kicks off at 9:00 AM on November 26th in Elmhurst, Illinois, so you'll want to arrive with plenty of time before sunrise at 6:54 AM. Chicago O'Hare is just 5.8 miles away, making it super convenient for flying in the day before. Pack layers since late November typically brings highs around 48°F and lows near 34°F, and there's about a one-in-three chance of rain, so a light jacket and maybe a rain shell are smart calls.
