What Is Your Thanksgiving Workout?

Turkey Trot!!! I did three last year and have done 2/3 so far this year and have one more planned!

5K Saturday--won my age group

10K trail race Sunday--also won my age group

And thanksgiving morning the whole family will do one on the sand at the beach! We will be split between the 10K the 5K and the kids 1 mile races.

I was planning on running our towns turkey trot and hitting the gym at least 3 days. But I attempted to ice skate this weekend and now I have whiplash and a bruised tailbone so now I'm down on my side for a few days. :(

Ouch! Feel better!!

I'm doing a 5k thanksgiving morning. It'll be my first, my goal is to just finish.

I'll have lots of extra workout time since I'll be off Thursday- Tuesday...and you can't forget all the steps from black Friday shopping!

Yay!!! Great goal for your first--you've got this!

Gosh. I'm not trotting much on thanksgiving.... But I will work out on Friday with a trainer.

I still don't foresee trotting in my immediate future...best of luck to those who do!????????????

I'm still in pain but I didn't want to miss the turkey trot. It hurts the most when I'm sitting or laying so I'm going for it! Might not be running much, but I'm going to yo the best I can! Happy Thanksgiving y'all!

Thanks for all your replies! Wow, it sounds like there’s a lot of activity going on this weekend. jenn1, that’s a great idea to have those signs at your gym. They’re probably not a bad idea year-round for all kinds of foods!

Sleevy Wonder – good for you for getting in your steps AND your football watching instead of just the football watching!

That’s great we have so many 5k’ers and Turkey Trotters! I hope you all had successful outings!

Just a reminder (for myself more than anyone else)…the weekend’s not over! There’s still time to hit the roads, gym, or basement and get in some activity and undo a little damage, or get a head start on the month to come!
