Thursday morning I messaged Lana & Michele at 7:30 to make sure the 10K/5K Thanksgiving day run (or as K refers to it - The Gobbler Gallop) was still on & they both responded back with a "YES," so I slid my cold-gear on, & headed to the rec center. It was misting rain & pretty darn cold! But it warmed up real fast when I pulled into the parking lot and saw about 15 cars! YAY! Running buddies :-) My daddy (The Flash) was there to lead the run & take pictures.

So we took off down the greenway & the two groups split & I realized there were only 5 of us doing the 10K. Me, Lana, Michele, David, & Mike. When we got to the halfway mark I realized I wasn't doing all that hot. I felt like I was pushing it pretty good, but my time wasn't reflecting that. It appeared that I was running right around 9:30 miles. I expected much better? Oh well... it's Thanksgiving... at least I'm out here! I must have picked it up on the 2nd half because my finishing time was 54:40. 8:49 pace. I was pretty disappointed, but then I again I never get too torn up over stuff like that. I got a great workout & burned quite a few calories so I'm cool with it!
I came home, brewed some coffee, took a hot shower & got ready for the family Thanksgiving in Sherwood, TN! I got to see my cousins that I don't see much so that's always great. I got to see Megan, Laura, Sammy, Steve (from New Orleans), Stacey, Lisa & last but not least my sweet sweet grandmother "Ma." Here is a pic of me & Mom just after stuffing our faces.
So later that evening I came home & K came over & we got hungry around 9pm again! We headed to Crockets & shared a few brews & food. Friday I met K @ T's house & we met up with some more friends at Fast Jack's. I drank too much wine & we had to go home early :-/ Saturday was a slow, dreary day. I went to visit with my parents & Sat night K & I hit the boro for some big-time Christmas shopping! We finished up G's & his parents' gifts & then ate at Romano's Macaroni Grill. Sunday we went to church, then after church it was O'Charleys! Do ya think I ate enough this weekend? I haven't weighed since then for fear of the damage I've done! Sunday night I took the plunge & got my new running shoes. I know myself well enough to know needing new shoes woulda been a great excuse to keep my lazy butt from exercising this week.... so I did not allow that! "Self... you know you want to do a marathon. You know you need shoes to train. Buy the shoes & quit being a tight -@ss!"
Today I ran 4 miles at lunch. 35:37, 8:54 pace. It was cold! My hands got numb pretty fast - I do not think I dressed appropriately! Then I very reluctantly went to the dentist. I had prepared myself for a nice little root canal but got lucky and we're going to try just a filling for now. So when I got home I was in such a good mood I took Hattie for a 1.6 mile walk & boy did she LOVE it! :-)
