I'm in again! They have an official Turkey Trot here, that I will be participating in TDay morning with my hubby and sister!
Gotta earn that 2nd piece of pie :D

I'm ready for this one.. I'll be walking, probably on the treadmill.... as long as my ortho appointment week after next goes well. If not, I may be hobbling on one leg. Maybe by this time next year, I'll be up to running one again.

Dee

Yes - I'm IN!!!

I'm planning on it!

Jet and I are RARING to go! Count me and my shadow in.

I will start the sign ups tomorrow...

if you have a #number# you would like to get again let me know.

Sign me up too! I am going to run the whole thing this time!

I'm in! #69, if it's available. You can put me in the semi-elite, birdwatching category.

I'm in! Can I have #311? Virgin category please (haven't been able to say THAT for a very long time!)

Just one slightly silly question --- what date is Thanksgiving? I could google it, but I'm too lazy. Cheers!

Thursday Nov. 27th, Ruth

I'm in. May I have #47 again?

Thanks! Now, let me get this straight - I run 5K, take a pic and post my time here. Is that all?

RUTH...you can run it...bike it...walk it...mall it!

We don't care how you do 3.1 miles...just do it...

pictures are nice...we encourage it...but not required
