Yesterday I met up with my buddy The Mad Scientist to run/walk the Gig Harbor Turkey Trot. Holmes Chiropractic holds the fun run every year as a fundraiser or the Gig Harbor Food Bank. {How cool is that?} I’m always amazed at how many families show up to this event every year.
It’s awesome to see thousands of people show up downtown wearing running tights and turkey hats so early in the morning, just to get in a little exercise. I mean really, with all the food that’s consumed on Thanksgiving, I think we could all use a little something to help burn all those calories, don’t you?
Pilgrims and Indians, still rockin’ it after all these years. 😉
How about YOU?
Did you get any exercise in yesterday {other than exercising your fork}?
Mavis wants to know.

What a compassionate event for Holmes Chiropractic sponsor each year! Sounds like you had fun, for a great cause. You remind me of the flying nun in your picture. 🙂 I have did my daily 12 minute Max3T workout. It is metabolic conditioning with short bursts of high-intensity exercise, or surges. The surges only last a few seconds, but it is a great way to build muscle and burn fat. I’ve lost 20 much needed pounds in the past two months! My chiropractor introduce me to it. God bless you, Mavis.

We ran a 5k yesterday morning too. All 7 of us – well, one in the stroller – made it the complete 3.1! I think next year I will have my girls wear those cute tutus!
