Thanksgiving 2024 is quickly fading into a distant memory as we move on to preparing for December’s winter holidays and festivities. But for many, the 43rd annual Cleveland Turkey Trot is still a vivid image. A record number of people—9,223 walkers and runners—braved the pouring rain on Thanksgiving last week, Thursday, Nov. 28, to participate in a one-mile fun walk, a 5K, and five-mile race.

Many of those participants donned costumes for the races, and many also dressed up their dogs for the event.

Whether you raced, attended the Turkey Trot, or just wish you were there, it’s now time to vote in FreshWater Cleveland’s Turkey Trot Costume Contest.

Vote in both the individual, group, and pet divisions for your favorite in each category. FreshWater will award prizes to the winner in each division.

Choose carefully, because you can only vote for one favorite in each division. The contest ends on Monday, Dec. 9 at 12 p.m. The winners of the costume contest will be announced on FreshWater’s site on Tuesday, Dec. 10.
