Turkey Day Runs...
Anybody out there do any Turkey runs yesterday?
I ran in one that had an approx. 25,000 people participate (most were walkers tho)
It was a record cold day for my area, at race time, it was about 39*-that was kinda a mental block for me (I ran in shorts), but once the race started, the cold was the last thing on my mind.
I ran the 5k in 23:29, not a personal record but it's better than I thought I would do.
It's kinda surreal to run in such a large crowd....
This was my 10th race since 7/3/10, I'm shooting for 12 by the end of year.
Here's an overhead shot from last year-

I wimped out!
It was raining here...I was prepared for cold but not rain, so I didn't run yesterday. I did do 3.5 miles this morning, though, and I'm going to do an Elf Trot next weekend.
Congrats to who all did it yesterday
