Turkey Trot

Some foreigner friends put on a 5K Turkey Trot. We ran around the block and everyone who participated received a t-shirt. There were 17 runners (plus two babies in strollers).

My friend and I found out about the Trot and started training for it a month and a half ago. We really wanted to run the whole thing, so we trained three times a week either outside or at a gym. We were very proud to say that we ran pretty much the whole thing and had a time of 31 min. and 13 seconds.

Alvin didn't run, but he managed the only water station. He also was the race photographer.

This is at the water station. The weather was just a little above freezing temperatures. I made sure to stay warm and even ran in long underwear.

This is me at the finish line.

Here is the t-shirt that I received.

I love that cute shirt! Were there many curious on-lookers with questions? Wished I was there to watch.
