My sister texted me and asked if I wanted to run on Thanksgiving day; a 5K somewhere. It would be fun she said, plus I have been wanting to run 4 races this year and didn't do not-a-one this summer. I checked around on the internet and found a race in Sherwood, $25 bucks and travel time. Not what either of really wanted to do...so we said we would run 3.1 miles on Thanksgiving morning. No problem. Just her and I. Fun. I was really looking forward to it.
Last week...
My sister tells me that she got us t-shirts, mapped on route on map-my-run.com and let's round up some people to run! OK.
Thanksgiving Day...
9:00 Eleven of us met at our mom's house, tried to stay warm and headed off down the road in our matching t-shirts. What a blast! So fun to be running in the cool, crisp air with friends...well at least for the first 2 minutes. They all were a block ahead of me after that and I just watched the backs of them!
We have some ideas for the 2nd annual Turkey Day 5K. (More to come!)
