• comments: so i signed up for the turkey trot at the last minute and ran it. i should have gotten closer to the start line as i had to pass a lot of slow people and walkers. i didn't know the route but knew ahead of time it was hilly, noted the downward slopes and let gravity work for me to increase my speed. the hills weren't that bad. i was able to get a little bit of oomph when i saw the finish line this time, most likely because i'm used to running longer distances. i always hope that i'll place well, and i placed 8th in my age group this time. i'm dissapointed by my placement, but pleased by my personal record, which is almost a minute faster than my last 5k. glad i took the chance, spent the cash and ran the race.
