Turkey Trot today..

We (Jason, Scout and I) traveled up to Virginia to see family for Thanksgiving yesterday after my crazy day and stressful time of running over a wheel on I-540 (which deployed my airbags).

We drove up on Wednesday night so we would be ready to do the Turkey Trot this morning. One key thing about here, is that it's COLD! I got up in the morning and took Scout out for his normal walk and it was chilly but it didn't seem to bad...until the wind started to pick up. While getting dressed for running the turkey trot I debated lot's of different levels of layers. I ended up with my long sleeve hoodie and my running vest, and running tights. Jason wore running pants and a short sleeve shirt and a running overshirt (long sleeve), Scout just wore his fur, he was good with that. We got there a little early to pick up our shirts and see what was up. As we were waiting around we just couldn't stand it anymore, so we decided to go on and start running. We started about 10 minutes earlier than the 9am start. We had a great run. Scout was funny and tried to pull me up to the fast runners as they caught up to us....and passed us. I think Scout would be a good little racer.

We didn't stick around for awards, mostly because if we won anything it wouldn't of been fair!!*winks* Plus the awards ceremony wasn't until 10:15.

FYI- Waynesboro is hilly!! So recap it was COLD and HILLY! HA!!

Ohh and we'll be out running again on Saturday....still gotta get my long run in!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!
