Turkey Trot

Well, the 14th annual turkey trot is in the books and I'm super late on the blog update! This year will definitely be marked with an asterisk! This is the first year that none of us have been together. We've been separated in the past, but at least two have always been together. Besides being apart, we also had very different running conditions! Tara ran on a beautiful, sunny 72 degree day in Okinawa. Brian and Amanda ran on a very cold, snowy, icy (they had to walk the turns icy)track in Decorah and we ran on our treadmill in the basement! It was -30 celcius the day that we ran which converts to -22F. We are die hards, but not that die hard! Of course the year we don't really count the scores is the year I get a PR! Oh well, more motivation to stay running and get my time down even more for next year!

Tony took the honors again and I'm pretty sure that had nothing to do with any conditions:) He ran it in 5:26. Chris came in 2nd, and then Tara at 3rd, me at 4th, Amanda at 5th, Max came in 6th with a 9:36, Brian came in 7th and Mya came in 8th place with a time of 13:20. Livi and Grace weren't too thrilled about running in the snow without their cousins so they decided to save up until next year:) Enjoy some pictures!
