YMCA Turkey Trot Relay

Did the world class event known as Boise's Turkey Trot Relay. It's a 4 x 2 mile course around Ann Morrison Park. The goal is to run as closely to your predicted overall time as possible, without the use of a watch. Our co-ed team was titled "Got the Runs." We did pretty well overall (placed top 5, I think), but we were over 2 minutes off our predicted team time, hence no turkeys for us.

I ended up running 10:47, so I was close to my predicted 10:50 time. It was super cold this morning, but only icy in a few spots so that was good. I ran the first leg and was able to finish second behind ageless wonder Alan Newton (pushing age 50 and probably still at 15 min 5k runner). The rest of our team ran great, and we all had a lot of fun.

Great run, sounds like a fun time, sorry about missing the turkey.

Alan is an amazing runner! Great job staying close.
