Turkey Trots on Thanksgiving Morning
Turkey Trot races are usually a way for local charities to raise money in your local area.
Many also have canned food drives or toy collections in conjunction with races. It is a really nice way to give back and quite convenient.
Most runs on Thanksgiving are 5K races. Doing a 5K run can add a new level of challenge and interest to your exercise program. A 5K run is 3.1 miles.
Don’t be afraid of the distance. A 5K run is a great distance for a new runner.
Long time runner and race announcer Andy Schachat joined Mike Pomp on the Morning Information Center to chat about the Turkey Trots in NH and Maine on Thanksgiving morning.
