Turkey Trot 5K at the Galleria, Middletown, New York

The Wallkill East Rotary has organized the event. I am proud to be a member of such a great and giving club. The first ever 5K Turkey Trot at the Galleria will take place at 8 AM on Thanksgiving morning, November 28, 2013. The run/walk event will finish in front of the movie theater entrance.

Across America there on more running events held on Thanksgiving Day than any other day of the year. I can’t imagine a better way to “Earn your Bird” than to celebrate together on Thanksgiving morning with a little exercise and community fun. Whether you participate, volunteer or just come to watch your loved ones, this is a great way to begin one of the most important days of our year.

Speaking to Rockland Road Runners Club

I am very excited to return to my roots – Rockland County and speak to premier running club in the county: the Rockland Road Runners. I will be speaking about my two Trans America Runs, overcoming common challenges unique to runners, and giving some shoe fitting tips. I am looking forward to meeting up with some old friends, as well. Hope to see you there.
