Turkey Trax 5k

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!  I started the day out with the Turkey Trax 5k.  It is a fun race that brings out a ton of people.  It makes it a bit challenging at the beginning as there are a lot of people to try to pass.  Over 1,200 people did this run.  I had a killer headache for this one and I hoped the run would help clear it up but it didn't.  I was happy with my finishing time considering my head was pounding and there was a massive amount of people walking to get past at the start.  

A friend from work was volunteering at the race and saw me coming up to the finish line and grabbed this photo.

Julie brought out her festive Turkey Day hats for our after photos!  It was a chilly morning for a run but a good one.  The uphill finish didn't feel as rough as last year.  t thought it was going to be my last run of the year but I went home and signed up for one more in December.  Having a race on the calendar is always good motivation to keep me running!
