There is no better way to prepare for a holiday dinner than to go for a hard and fast run. This is exactly what my friend and fellow
DFMC runner Bess and I set out to do.
We chose to run the
Boston Volvo 5K Road Race mainly based on its location and starting time, and it turned out to be a very nice race to run even with the rather noticeable hill at the beginning in the first mile. Unfortunately, this was
not a PR for me, but I enjoyed the race immensely.
Clearly Bess and I were far from the only ones with an urge to run on Thanksgiving Day morning. Over a thousand people ran the race along with us, and at the same time there were numerous other races taking place in the Greater Boston area. Even the New York Times published
a blurb about the urge to run on Thanksgiving.
