Granville Island Turkey Trot Run

What an amazing day… running… in the rain… 10 km… in the Granville Island Turkey Trot Run 2011.  I had a tonne of fun.

Almost a 23 minute difference… something to note.  Although I may have shuffled for about 8 km and walked the rest, I shuffled.  Last year, I had major hip problems and walking was generally painful.  It may have seemed like a painful experience to shuffle through most of the race this year, it felt great not to hobble during the gobble.

Don’t get me wrong… I am currently lying on the couch after a hot bath… resting with some discomfort.  This is a lesson that I have not figured out yet… TRAINING MATTERS.  Other than that, I am so proud of myself to return to the Turkey Trot Run in better health.  Next year, my plan is to beat this year’s time by another twenty minutes, or so.  Hello training… Wish me luck.
