Running was able to cheer me up tonight after a frustrating drive home. He is a great friend. On my run tonight I ran behind two HS kids, one on a razor scooter and one on a bike. They were going so slow that I was actually keeping pace with them. They never got farther than like half a block in front of me. I was behind them for about 3/4 of a mile before the scooter kid got tired, then I ran right past them. I was booking it tonight. It felt great. I am ready for Thursday morning and the Turkey Day run. Hopefully I’ll be able to beat last year’s time (48:16), after all, I did run a HALF MARATHON. Five miles should be easy.

I hope they give us better shirts than last year’s. I hate the design on last year’s shirt. It had both of the presidential candidates running with a turkey, but the joke was stale since it came out 3 weeks after the election. At least the running turkey looked happy. I think this year’s shirt is really bright gold with a profile of a turkey on it. At least that’s the design on the race webpage. It can’t be worse than last year’s, it just can’t.
