I just wanted to wish everyone and their families a very Happy Thanksgiving. I know it's a wee-bit early, but our family will be traveling and I wanted to get this posted. I'm thankful for having found this site... y'all have been most encouraging and inspiring to me and I don't think that I would have the lofty running aspirations that I do were it not for many of you. Blessings to you and your families this Thanksgiving! Big grin

Safe travels Rick and Enjoy!!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Safe travels to you Rick and everyone else travelling over the holidays. In addition to being thankful for finding RA, I'm thankful that my brother-in-law (the chef) is cooking this year and it's only a 3 mile drive to his house. Wink

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

Many blessings to all you RA'ers! modal (who has no idea what he's doing for Thanksgiving outside of running the Fort Worth Turkey Trot... hopefully it will get cooler and I'll PR.)

You should run then to create a calorie deficiency!

Have a safe trip Rick. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving RA! Remember to count your blessings and give thanks for all that you have. The thing I'm most looking forward to is the prayer that my 75 y/o uncle will offer before our meal on Thursday, he always leaves us with a smile and a tear. Smile

(Despite the giggles from all 20 of us having to hold hands at the dinner table, we really do pay attention to the prayer)
