Here's the training plan for Turkey Trot week! For those of you "trotting" on Thanksgiving day, your see I'm trying to give you a little rest ahead of the big event.
If a Turkey Trot isn't in the plans for your Thanksgiving Day morning, you can still try to do something like a 5K on your own on another day, if you want.
Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! (Again, I won't be at the Tuesday night run this week.)
