weekly winners: thanksgiving edition

Turkey Chase

On Thanksgiving morning, I ran the Turkey Chase 10K. They offer a 10K race and a 5K run/walk. But before we got running, there was a mascot race. The Turkey was challenged by various restaurant and school team mascots in a short race.

I thought the Turkey would be a sure-thing to win, it being Thanksgiving and all. He was the defending champion from last year.

But it wasn’t meant to be.

No, they didn’t run a 5K! They just borrowed the finish line.

After I got home, I showered and started cooking!

Even before her turkey feast, Meadow was getting into the Thanksgiving spirit.

  1. Love that mascot race! Too cute. And good for you for getting up on Thanksgiving morning and running that race!

    I tried Tofurky for the first time last week — my roommate is a vegan so her mom had cooked one for her. Not bad!

  2. I just love everything about all of these! Congrats on your run, and I feel right at home with the yummy food and happy lazy kitties. 🙂 The last shot reminds me of my orange guy.
