Hi and happy Thanksgiving, folks! No turkey trot here, but we are going to have our traditional vegetarian soup. And there might be kale salad.
Marjorie, glad you were able to get some miles in.
Good luck, racers!
Supp peeps!
6 miles done in a steady snow and cold ass wind. So much so that my beard and hair were completely covered when I got in!
What was most significant about this run however, had nothing to do with the run itself. It was how my back felt afterwards, which for the first time in a long time, was great.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
29:27 at my Turkey Trot 5K this morning. Not a PR but considering it was 27 "feels like" 16 with 20mph sustained winds and gusts over 35mph, and that I've had low mileage and shin issues lately, I was pleased. And I ran a 33:33 at the same race last year, at the same effort level so it is good to see that tangible amount of improvement!!
Have a great day and yay for fellow racers!

Great news LRB!
I ran in the same conditions as you (except no beard) - 14 windchill, a bit of snow on the ground, a bit more coming down. Found it quite pleasant, more cold than wind. However that is definitely jacket weather for me, although I did unzip the vents midway through to cool off a bit. A lot of runners out there today, and even a couple crazy cyclists. 12 miles.
Kristin - congrats!
Zel - arrgh, no more kale!!
Happy Thanksgiving & Happy Hanukkah!

Happy Turkey Day.
I started the day by creating a 4.6 mile equivalent calorie deficit. It has since been thoroughly erased...
Running for TJ because he can't.
That is hilarious!

Evening, dailies, and Happy Thanksgiving And happy Hanukkuh too!
I enjoyed a great dinner today with family. The turkey was excellent, as was the bourbon that my nephew and I enjoyed.
i actually took a little walk this evening, and it felt good. We'll see how the knee feels tomorrow morning.
hope hope everyone has had a great holiday.

You sure love your bourbon!
Dulce de leche cheesecake is out of the oven. Turkey breast roast is halfway done. Starting the sides. Yum.
Kristin, how did you like that Skirts Sports skirt with attached legging? Or was that your own? I bought it but I wonder how did you feel in that weather (for future reference, you know).
