11/27/2003: "Guilt-free Thanksgiving"

I ran in the annual Turkey Trot 5K this morning. Yes, I am nuts. Well, it's only once a year. And some of the ORC rowers hopped on board, so we made it a team effort by wearing ORC T-shirts and looking like a group of Brazilian tourists. I recorded a personal-best 5K time, around 37 minutes. To anyone who has run competitively, it's a horrible time. But seeing as how even the thought of me "running" 3.1 miles was pure folly a few years ago, I can live with it. I was mostly just proud that I (1) woke up that freakin' early in the morning, (2) got my best time yet and (3) jogged the whole way without having to stop or walk, even though my jog sometimes was no faster than a race walk.

There are pictures in the moblog from my phonecam, which I carried with me.

And speaking of the Turkey Trot, I distinctly remember writing in my blog about running in last year's Turkey Trot. So this blog has been in existence for a little longer than a year now. Happy Birthday, me.
