Who has the runs?

Well, now that Thanksgiving dinner is over and pie is on the horizon, I have some time to think about Turkey Trots.

...

OK, now that that's over with, I'll post some pictures of a race that we did this morning to celebrate the day. We went down to Lynchburg (about an hour away), and did a 5K with about 1596 other people.


Nick came in second in his age group and 22nd overall with a time of 19:26, while I followed with a 22:33 (7th in age group and 100th overall).

The three boys had a great time and all finished in 34, 35, and 36 minutes, respectively.

As you can see, the weather was nice enough for Nick to dress down a bit, which all the ladies on the course enjoyed.

The best (but sad) part of the race was seeing a girl barf right before crossing the finish line (it was a pretty hilly course).

And for once I didn't have to sneak post-race food for the boys, since they ran the race themselves.

OK, time for pie.

Love the tan, Nick. That's pretty impressive how fast the boys' times were. Good job, everyone!
