The Day After

Last night we had our Thanksgiving practice run.  We fried the turkey to perfection and then 8 adults and 4 kids picked it clean.  The 16 pound turkey never knew what hit it.  I ate way too much turkey and paid for it today but will probably do it all over again in 2 days.  I think we have 12 adults and 8 kids coming over to feast with us.  The place will be a mad house but it should be fun.

My pastor and I are running the Gobble Jog 5K Thankgiving morning.  This should make the gluttony we will do later that day no quite as bad.  Marathon training is underway.  This is not going to be easy, but when I cross the finish line on March 29th and become one of the 0.1% of Americans that will finish a marathion this year I think it will be worth it.
