Turkey Trot

On Thanksgiving Day, Linda, her daughter Jen, two dogs (Bugsy and Kaiser), Ann, and her husband Paul took part in the 18th annual Turkey Trot 5k to raise donations for the local food pantry. Ann's husband Paul decided to run the course instead of walk--a decision he would regret the next day due to all the sore muscles and joints! Although the dogs would have preferred trotting, Ann, Linda and Jen decided a nice brisk walk would be best. The walk began at Transmission Supply on London Rd and wound through neighborhood towards the mall and then looped back. There were plenty of other walkers with their four-legged friends, and also quite a few runners. We had a great time chatting with the other people, and Bugsy did his best to steal mittens from the walkers in front of us! We all agreed it was a great way to burn some calories before digging into all that turkey and pumpkin pie, as well as raise money for a worthy cause.
