2015 Thanksgiving Day 5k

This was my 4th year running the Thanksgiving Day 5k in Cottonwood Heights, and it did not disappoint. A group of 7 of us signed up, participated and had a blast! Here's the whole crew before we walked over to the Rec Center for the start of the race. 
We meandered through the neighborhood and got to the start are with just a few seconds to spare. Lacy, Crystal, and I hopped into the melee, snapped one quick photo, and off we went! As usual, I was dressed as a Green Bay Packer, and also wore the awesome football headband that Bethany made for me. 
Lacy finished fast, and Crystal and I plodded along at our own speed. I'm not quite sure how the boys finished, but I know we all had fun. One of these years I'm going to figure out a good way to take pictures during events so I have some action shots in addition to the fun group ones. 
Even though running a 5k doesn't burn that many calories, it does feel nice to start the Thanksgiving Day holiday off with some exercise. See you all there next year!
