Run
Comments: I felt pretty good about my run, but had a hard time mentally at the start since we had missed the gun. I was really disappointed not to start with my friends, especially after all the trouble I had gone to to get everyone to meet up together. Pushed on and eventually got over it. I passed two friends and then met up with a third for the finish. What would you do differently?: Get to the start on time and train more on hills. Post race
Warm down: Met up with friends and family and chatted about everyone's performance. Did not stretch, I was too frazzled by all the people we were trying to keep together and thinking about 30 people coming to my house later that day. What limited your ability to perform faster: Mental issues with missing the start and too many hills. Event comments: I would like to make the Turkey Trot an annual event. This is the first time I had done it and I think a run before all that eating is a great idea. Last updated: 2006-10-29 12:00 AM

Gathered with family and tried to meet up with friends.
Ran/walked the 5k race with our 7 year old daughter. Unfortunately didn't stretch, too busy trying to find friends and family and meet up with someone to take our 7 year old before my husband and I headed to the 10k start. We missed the gun and I started my watch as we crossed the starting line (or at least what we thought was the starting line), then someone told us it was further down so my time is definitely not exact but close.
