My latest crazy scheme is to compete in a Thanksgiving 5k. Is it even possible?? I mean, Thanksgiving is less than 6 weeks away and I am not in any kind of good shape. I caught this wild idea in Fairhope, AL, walking around looking at all of the cute shops. Window shopping of course, as EVERYTHING in Fairhope is closed on Sundays! I cam across a poster for their Turkey Trot and I thought, "Why not?". So on Monday I googled 5k training in 6 weeks and there is actually a training program someone already created. I just have to follow along! It is not for the faint of heart, though. After adding all of the mileage and minutes, I saw that each training session is 1-1 1/2 hours long. What??? Oh well, I'm giving it a shot anyway :). Yesterday I completed day 3, woohoo!!!
I'll put the link down below so any of the rest of you crazy people can join me if you like!

A run on Thanksgiving morning is always a great start before the feasting. Question: Do turkeys really trot?
It sounds like your training schedule for this important event will be rigorous. At least an hour a day is not for the faint of heart...I personally think a half-hour would be enough for a sporty girl like YOU!
Please write more about all your Alabama schemes, recipes (Shrimp and Grits), and time warping tricks. Your readers await.
Of COURSE turkeys trot. If you can't catch them they won't end up on your Thanksgiving table! What would I do without my faithful reader? So glad to have sisters!
