Hello Blogger World! I'm Emily Zeiger...lovely sister of Sarah Blind. I'm guest blogging today to share my Thanksgiving Day idea with you all. I did post about it on FB so forgive me if you're seeing this for the 2nd time.
Originally I was going to sign up for the Great Gobble Gallop 5K at the Monroe County YMCA on Thanksgiving Day (good way to start a day when you know you're going to be eating ALOT). Sarah and I are going to Chicago the weekend after for the Santa Hustle so I opted to save my monies for SHOPPING!! Sooo...here's my idea: What about having our own 5K in Red Bud?
Of course, this will be totally casual, non-competitive and pretty "thrown together" since it's only 2 weeks away. My thought was to meet somewhere in Red Bud: IGA, the High School lot, The Office, etc. (something centralized) and run/walk the streets of Red Bud. I might go so far as to find some cute Turkey Day headband, beads, a cute shirt, etc. to be festive.
What do you say? Who's with me? I know Thanksgiving is a busy day and you're either cooking, working or traveling to 2-5 houses that day but this is a quick way to get a good workout in before you inhale turkey, dressing, pumpkin pie (ahhh...I can feel myself gaining weight already).
Let me know if you're interested. I'll map out a flat, 3.1 mile course through town. Come one, come all...strollers, pets, runners, walkers!!
Further details to follow as the YES replies come in!! =)
