Tuesdays on the Run: A Connecticut Turkey Trot

Happy Tuesday! This week was a pretty low mileage week, mainly due to spending time with family for the holidays, plus 20+ hours in the car 3 days this week. But, I was still able to get out and get in a few runs, including a run in NY and a Turkey Trot in Connecticut! Here are some of the miles:

And some of the highlights:

I got to run with B and FW twice this week! We ran together Wednesday before our car trip and Thursday for the Turkey Trot. AND B even pushed the stroller both times, so I just got to run along next to them.

Post Turkey Trot:

Also, I was able to run on a beautiful and “warm” (40s) day in New York when I was home. I got in a few miles while FW was at a playground with my parents. And I finished up and met up with them!

Also, I saw this floating around on the Instas and had to share it in case you haven’t seen it. Ha! I’m so happy I married into a family where my spouse is up for the crazy turkey day running tradition with me 🙂

Can I get a clause against this in my prenup?

Some questions for you:

  • Did you run a Turkey Trot?
  • How cold has the weather been near you?

  1. I have actually never ran a turkey trot on Thanksgiving. I always think the way I eat I need to run more than a 5k..haha. I just ran on the treadmill while watching the Macy’s Day Parade. Besides it seems to be always cold here on Thanksgiving, but this year it was actually nice, go figure!
