I'm in, I'm actually doing a 4 mile Galloping Gobbler race, but I'll tack on 2 more so I can play!

Tiger Lily 03

11-15-2009, 10:22 AM

Great idea Tracy! I'll plan to play. It will be fun to be out there thinking of my fellow WISH Team mates doing the same.

syko

11-15-2009, 10:43 AM

Thanks!

MouseDogMom

11-15-2009, 08:09 PM

DH and I are already registered for a local 8K Turkey Trot. The course is really hilly, so I'm not much interested in adding mileage to reach the 10K! But we will be running and thinking of you guys, so count us in as "almost" virtually participating!

Jackie

11-15-2009, 08:16 PM

I'll be doing the 5 Mile Turkey Trot downtown that morning so I will end up just short of a 10K.

11-15-2009, 09:05 PM

I am doing a 5 miler but I can add a mile or so on so I can play too.

I will be Race Directing a 5K/10K on Thanksgiving Day so I will have have my runners/walkers do it for me :)

goofyinohio

11-16-2009, 08:50 AM

Count me in!!! Might do a 4 miler race I have been doing the last couple years, but will add a 2.2 mile warm up to get me to the 6.2!

Can't wait to see what the Medals look like........:banana:

twoWDWfools

11-16-2009, 10:47 AM

I'll be in the car driving to Florida all day so unless I can do it in pieces, won't be able to play.

Great idea Tracy! Please count me in.

11-16-2009, 11:56 AM

I'll be working Race Staff for a local 5 miler, But I will be a virtual "Scream Teamer" from afar.

11-16-2009, 12:02 PM

I have that scheduled as a rest day - as the day before I have a 16 miler planned (had to move my long runs around since I will be at the NASCAR races this weekend) I might be able to move the schedule around so I get a 10k in on Thanksgiving morning. That would leave me free to relax on my bday - which is the next day.

I will let you know later if I will be participating. Sounds fun though. Maybe we should have more of these "virtual" races.

dsnyfan21

11-16-2009, 01:16 PM

Tricia: Ok, let me know!

Liz: I can add you to the virtual Scream Team with Chester!

OK, I will come up with a medal/clipart or something for those who participate and put in the miles! I'll have to work on it this week.

YAY!! This will be fun.

I've got a 10 mile Turkey Trott on tap. No medal or shirt awarded, just a pace race that doesn't allow you to wear a watch, Garmin, IPod, etc. You have to predict your finish time, and run to that pace. Closest to your time wins.

Two years ago, a friend nailed her time down to the second. Amazing control of pace.

DisneyPiPhi

11-16-2009, 05:49 PM

I am doing a 10-miler Turkey Trot with my local Fleet Feet! Count me in for the virtual race. :)

ms.mightyduck

11-16-2009, 06:16 PM

Hi, Tracy! Count Noah and I IN!

Also, for about $3 a person, we can have medals made with turkeys on them. I'd be happy to take the orders and ship them. If there's interest, I'll look into how much it would cost to ship to each person. :-)

Duckie

dsnyfan21

11-16-2009, 08:13 PM

Cool Jen/Duckie -

What does everyone think - you wanna a turkey medal??? Should I put a poll up???

DisneyPiPhi

11-16-2009, 08:38 PM

I so want a turkey medal!

Well, I read on FB that Jim is in, so I guess I am too. Did someone say Turkey Medal??

mkymsehi

11-16-2009, 10:22 PM

Jen,

I'd be in for 3 Turkey medals. Two to give to friends I train with, and are running the Turkey Trott with me.

11-17-2009, 10:30 AM

I'll be in WDW on T-day this year - the perfect place to run the First Annual WISH Virtual Turkey Trot 10K! Count me in!

TnTsParty

11-17-2009, 11:05 AM

Really - medals??? That might push me to sign up for this virtual thing. LOL The more I think of it doing my run on Thursday might be better than doing it on Friday. Count me in Tracy.

goofyinohio

11-17-2009, 11:17 AM

Oh man I was kidding about the medal, but if ya'll are serious then oh yeah. :woohoo:

I wonder if we can get a WISH Lanyard to go with it? :rolleyes1

I'm no longer talking to you.... :rotfl2:

I'm in, although we might do a 5K race here. Maybe I'll just have to do it twice!

DianeL

11-17-2009, 01:08 PM

That is sooo cool Jenn/Duckie! What a neat idea! Tracy/Jenn tell me where to send the money and it will be in the mail this week. Tomorrow if needed :thumbsup2

What fun!!! :woohoo:

Jusacuz

11-17-2009, 01:13 PM

The medal idea is pretty cool. I'd definitely be interested in contributing to that. However, even without, a clippie medal would be just as good. :)
Now if it could just not snow here on that day, I'll be super happy.

mla1977

11-17-2009, 01:22 PM

Count me in! I replied on facebook. I'm scheduled for 5 miles that day anyways.

deekaypee

11-17-2009, 01:23 PM

Wait? I somehow missed there was a medal involved? Now I'm definitely in--two on one day! (Oh, and I don't care if it's a clippie or whatever! I just was using you all for motivation. :goodvibes)

Cindylou

11-17-2009, 02:12 PM

I'm signed up for a 5K, I'll add a warm up and cool down to double the distance (and calories burned).

Cindy

TnTsParty

11-17-2009, 02:29 PM

If we can't get real medals we can always have virtual ones - that way those of us that are on Facebook can have them there (if that is even a possibility)

mandac

11-17-2009, 05:45 PM

I am running a 5K that morning, but I will add some mileage for some extra bling! Even virtual bling.

What a great idea Tracy.

dsnyfan21

11-17-2009, 08:02 PM

I have everyone up to here.

I will have to get with Duckie on the "real" medal thing and see what we can come up with and in the meantime I will start working on a clipart for it.

I am so glad that people are excited about doing this!!

Sorry, I said yes on facebook, but not here. I believe I'm running the Gobble Jog 10K that morning unless something comes up with the relatives.

11-18-2009, 10:28 AM

Hi ya Tracy! Can you please add me to the list? I am going to drag my hubby out too. :thumbsup2

11-18-2009, 10:29 AM

Wow, for a medal Virtual or not) I would find somewhere to run an extra 1.2 miles!

jeanneg

11-18-2009, 12:12 PM

I would love to...but I can't....unless I can find some way to turn cooking for a crowd into a 10K around my kitchen! Can I do it the day after?

dsnyfan21

11-18-2009, 12:29 PM

Jean: Just get up extra early and have someone start for you! hahaha. If you wanna do it the next day I guess that is ok.

Have everyone up to here and if you wanna a after-party, that sounds fun - some people might be sleeping after doing there perspective 10ks and then eating Turkey! hahahaha:rotfl2::lmao:

Cinderrunner

11-18-2009, 03:50 PM

I love this idea! I think it is terrific! It will push me to stay accountable and get in some miles rather than sitting on my butt watching a parade.

11-18-2009, 04:21 PM

As usual, I am "in" on all things both running and Goofy! I will be running a marathon on Thanksgiving. (The Atlanta Marathon) That qualifies, right?
Or just makes me certifiable!

DH and I have all ready signed up for the Turkey Day 5K Getaway here. If we could add our two 5K's together to make 10K I'd say sure. I don't think I'll be able to do any extra on my own because I'll need to get back home ASAP as we are having Thanksgiving at OUR house! :scared1: Gotta get cookin'!

dsnyfan21

11-18-2009, 08:54 PM

Hi there!

New WISH member, here, who would love to join you all on Thanksgiving Day! I may only be able to complete 5 - 7K.......but I'll do the best I can to get as close to 10K as I am able!

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone, and thanks so much for organizing this great event, Tracy and Jen!

Lisa :)

I posted on the poll, but it really does not make a difference to me. Whatever we do is fine. It will be fun knowing I've got friends out there.

grstink

11-19-2009, 10:05 PM

New to the wishers, and would love to be included. I am not cooking this Thanksgving, but going to daughter's house so a morning walk/run would be great. I will push to make the miles and it will be great for my training.

jeanneg

11-20-2009, 09:18 PM

I don't have to put my turkey in until 11:00 so that leaves plenty of time for a morning 10K!

dsnyfan21

11-20-2009, 10:29 PM

Updated to here... Will get back with Duckie around Sun/Mon and then we'll figure out from the vote what we are going to do with the medal idea.
I do have a lil clipart that I will post after the 10K day for you to use in your siggy after you participate and post your time.

Lisa and Gretchen: Nice to have newbies come along. I think this is the first WISH Virtual Race, so we are all newbies!!:cool1::thumbsup2

11-21-2009, 04:31 AM

Hey Tracy- I know I don't have Thanksgiving over here, but could I join in and think of you all? I can squeeze in a 10k on my study day :) It is Sport and Exercise Psych so surely a run is like a practical :rotfl:

IASW Rider

11-21-2009, 08:03 PM

Hi Tracy!

Nice to "meet" you - and EVERYONE, here! Don't know what took me so long.......I've been here on the Boards for almost 10 years and have worked out every day for the past 8. I am a relatively "novice" runner - just started last January - and have since run 15 5K's and several one-mile races. (Most recently 5K + 1 mile, this morning - my first on-and-off-road race!) I've never attempted a 10K, so I will go as far as I can, next Thursday (or break it into 2 5K runs, if I must! :) )! Gotta start somewhere..........I fully intend to participate in one of the Wine & Dine races, next Fall and am determined to run the Princess Half in 2011! Thanks so much for organizing this virtual race and coordinating the awards with Duckie! :)

Hope that you - and everyone else, here - are having a great weekend!

Lisa :)

Tiger Lily 03

11-21-2009, 08:15 PM

Welcome to the new folks.
It is great to see so many playing with us on Thursday!

Lisa, if you can't "run" the entire thing that is ok. I am not able to run it all. I'll log my time even if I must crawl it. Do what you can and report your time.

IASW Rider

11-21-2009, 08:23 PM

Thanks so much for your kind and encouraging words, Tiger Lily! :) I will do my best to make you all proud! :)

And I'm sure that you will do a fantastic job - running, walking, or any way! :)

Have a great weekend! :)

Hey Duckie,

How about showing us our options on the turkey medals? How long before we get our hands on them?

I'm going to change my order to 2, since one person isn't running our race as previously planned.

Tracy,

Could you please add DOOD (Mark) to the list. He got jealous. :upsidedow
Thanks!

dsnyfan21

11-23-2009, 08:58 PM

Still getting the info for the medals. Jen is supposed to try to contact them today to see how much more the etching on the medal would be. Since the vote was up to $10 a medal.
I am waiting to hear.

OK I have added:
DOOD
Wendy and Claire!!

I would like to join in. However, mine will be on a different day, if that's OK. I'm going to do 5 miles on Wed. and 8 miles on Friday - both days with some friends. I'll probably do some bike riding on Thursday since we're not eating until Thursday night.

Thanks, Anne! I like the way you think! :) I know that I can run at least the first 4 miles........I will probably walk-run the last 2.3 .........or who knows? I may surprise myself and be able to run even further (as I've never tried to do so)..........maybe there will be a "THANKSGIVING MIRACLE"! ;) Anyway, thank you - and ALL of you, here on this thread - for your kind words of support and encouragement! Looking forward to "trotting" with all of you on Thursday! :)

In the mean time, hope that you're all having a nice week and hope that all of your Holiday preparations are going well! :)

Sorry I'm late to the game here. I haven't been on the boards in awhile. I'm interested in the virtual race and the medal, but would it be okay if I did my 10k later in the weekend rather than on Thanksgiving itself?

Thanks Jen and Tracy!! You girls are the best!! I just saw the info for the medal so I will send Jen a message now. I did my miles this morning just incase I don't get out there tomorrow. It started raining hard during mile 5 so I just looped around to the car and got my umbrella and kept going. Normally I would have got in the car and came home!!

Good luck to everyone tomorrow! The turkey medal will be so cool! I'm gonna try to get my miles in early so I can watch the parade. Have an early dinner so I can get back home to relax and watch football!

I'm in a fantasy football league with family and it makes watching the games CRAZY!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Count me in (provisionally). I will be running tomorrow - just not sure if I will have time to fit in a 10k, or if I will have to settle for less. Since I will probably not be able to run until tomorrow night, a 10k might be more likely than if I found a morning race.

Terri5176

11-25-2009, 11:07 PM

Well, I did my 10K+ tonight. How long did it take me? I don't really know! I had three interruptions - and by my calculations, I did 6.5 miles in 1 hour and 44 minutes.

I know, I did too many.....and that time didn't seem right.

But - I got 'er done!

Thanks so much for organizing this! It's great to need to be accountable!

I took on board all of your Thanksgiving spirit and brought it to a TM in England! Was actually quite a nice chance to stop and think about things.

So... my time was 52.43.

Happy Turkey Trot to you all, hope it's the start (or end) of a wonderful day.

Hey guys!

Add me to the list of people who replied on Facebook, but not here. Since I'm the one cooking/hosting Thanksgiving today I won't be able to get a whole 10K in today (particularly since my sister-in-law asked us to bump the meal up one hour!), but I will get a few miles in this morning. I will definitely do a 10K tomorrow, so if that still counts I'm in as well!

Thank you!! What fun!

DH and I ran a 5 mile Turkey Trot this morning. My (unofficial) time was 57:06, which is about a minute less than last year's. Then we took the dogs to the park for a 1.4 mile hike, so I officially did 6.4 miles today in 1:24:19.

Duane - I think you might possibly be an overachiever! :rotfl2:

Scott - Need to get Garmins for the dogs. It would be interesting to see the difference in mileage!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

I'm so bummed. I'm out. I got up at 8:00 this morning to take the dogs out, and I couldn't put weight on my right knee. I did something to it during my 18 miler on Sunday, but I really thought it would be better by today. I'm going to take the dogs for a walk this afternoon, but that'll be it for me today. :sad2:

And I was really excited because I was going to take my new German Shepherd, Sasha, with us today! My other German Shepherd Jack has been on EVERY SINGLE run I've ever done, but Sasha is just getting her leash manners up to the point where I could run with her. Oh well, there are other runs, I guess...

Happy Thanksgiving, all!

11-26-2009, 03:23 PM

Noah decided our Turkey Trot was a training walk. Then he got sidetracked and made me walk all over, through fields and grass and then, in honor of Mt. Trashmore, past the mounds of recycling center compost. He also made me jaywalk in front of a cop. Things he thinks are funny...

Anyway, we did 7.25 miles, but our 6.5 mile time was 2:07. Not very racy, but we did it. :-)

Honolulu Turkey Trot 10 miler.

I predicted my time at 1:27:30. My finishing time was 1:27:38. 8 seconds over placed me 19th overall in time predictions, out of nearly 1,000 participants. My training partner was 4 seconds under his prediction of 1:27:27, or 1:27:23. He was 12th overall. Prize for both of us, a Zippy's pumpkin pie. One of our clinic members was 1 second over his predicted time, earning him first place, and two inter-island round trip airline tickets.

I forgot to mention, no watches, Garmins, or Ipods are allowed on the course. The finisher's clock points away from you at the finish, so you can not see until you run through the finish line.

Great job everyone and I hope it made the turkey and fixing taste better (or at least come with a little less guilt).

I did the local 5 Mile Turkey Trot in 32:28 and used the warm up and cool down for my last 1.2. I didn't time it but my normal pace for both is just over 7 so to make it a 10K time I would guess it took about 8:40 so my 10K time was 41:08.

Diane - love the pictures!!!! Wow, you are speedy! Looks like you have a good area for training. I wish we had something like that. Good job.

I never did a 10K but something close. Hope it counts...

On Wednesday, I did a 5 mile walk with some friends. Later that day, I rode my bike for 10 miles. On Thursday, back to the bike for 15 miles. It was a bit chilly and windy but I survived. Also, I didn't feel as guilty for eating a little too much for Thanksgiving dinner later that night. Today, I did a 6-miler with a friend...felt a little sluggish from over-indulging the night before. :rolleyes1

On tap tomorrow - 8 miles.

Hope everyone had/has a great Thanksgiving! Tracy, thanks for getting this set up for us even though I didn't quite follow 10K on Thursday. :)

I did my 10k yesterday in 1:35:37. I decided to be "green" and combined the walk with some errands... went to the post office, did a lap around a park to get in some distance, stopped at Costco to pick up some photo prints, then headed home for one final lap around the neighborhood to make it to 6.2 miles.

Big thanks to Tracy for organizing this virtual event!!! :thumbsup2 I've done some type of race every month since April 2008 but wasn't able to get anything in for November. So this Turkey Trot was perfectly timed and I'm going to count it as my November event.

Unfortunately I spent more than I planned to on Black Friday deals so I'm going to skip the medal.

Got mine in on Turkey day (but this is the first I have had access since Thursday morning). Spent the morning driving five hours or so, got to relatives just in time for lunch, so my run was at the end of the day. Despite treadmill run, no competition, and laden with turkey and pie, I manged to eke out a 43:30 for my 10k.

11-29-2009, 01:02 PM

I did it, but my Garmin needed charging and I was unable to record a completely accurate distance and time (especially since we stopped once to chat!) I'll agree to be DLF since it was definitely over hungrygreenhippo's 1:35! The key thing is that I did it and was able to get out of the kitchen for a nice envigorating stroll on Thanksgiving morning.
Thanks for organizing this, Tracy!

Congrats to everyone who did this though.

I thought I replied to this thread earlier and said I was doing it, but don't see my post now. Anyway, finished in 59:35. I enjoyed the virtual race!

Sadly - I did do somewhat of a 10k - on the treadmill - except I forgot to go the extra .2 miles - so I guess I can say at least I got 6 miles in but I guess I didn't finish the Turkey Trot 10k - my first DNF

OK, I'm not the race director, but I say to tack 0.2 on another run adn call it good. This was supposed to be for fun and a small mental error shoudl not take that away. :hug:

Thanks Carrie - I was off the treadmill and in the shower when I realized - duh I didn't finish the race. LOL No sweat - at least I made the effort to do something.

If your treadmill had any sort of cool-down period after the 6 miles, you probably came close enough. (Heck, there is a race I run every year that is listed as a 10k, but is barely over 6 miles.)

I will add you to the list, no worries, I have been busy with Thanksgivigna dn then was out of town until last night. I will try to update when I get a chance.

No worries. (I meant to add a smiley in my post as well.) I figured I could use a bandit race or two, to add to my street cred or something. ;)

(Tracy, feel free to add this to the first post)

Okay, I noticed on Saturday that people were still signing up for medals, so I waited until today. Mooshu, you're in. I'm in the process of sending out the PayPal billing now. You should have it within the hour, I suspect.

Bills will come from "Tailored Ceremonies" because that's my business acct (well, really PayPal merged that acct with my personal acct, but whatever).

Let's see if we can have payment due by Friday, so that those who get paid 30th/1st/Thurs/Fri can all have shiny new checks in their bank accts. I'll put the order in on Saturday, we'll have them here by the following Friday, and with the exception of the overseas medal, they should be in your hands the following week. :-)

That presupposes everything goes to plan. ;-)

If you're a last minute Turkey medal desirer (is that a word?), PM me with your email address/full name and I'll get a bill to you as soon as I can, to be paid by Friday.

Thanks to Tracy for organizing this!

Love,
Duckie

Thanks - ok so my time wasn't great - I was on the treadmill and it was Thanksgiving and I just wanted to be done - so my time for 6 miles is 83 minutes or 1 hour 23 mins - yikes that is a bad time for me. Oh well like you said Tracy at least I got up and was moving.

Jen is it too late for a medal request - I really thought I blew it by missing the .2 miles.

Hi, all.

I have logged in everyone to this point. All latecomers have been sent invoices and almost everyone has paid. I got home late and need to get some rest. Anyone else who wants in, I can send out invoices again tomorrow to be paid right away.

Thank you so much everyone for being so patient. I'm working on addressing envelopes so we'll be ready to go when the medals come in.

I have three people who, according to PayPal, have not completed their payments. I sent reminders to those three people--if you got one, please confirm that you have finished the payment. It still says "pending" on my end and I have no other receipt at this time.

Thank you! I'll be sending out the order this evening. It's a weekend, so it won't change the shipping estimates. The order should still be processed tomorrow morning, and I hope to have them by Saturday still.

Have a great day everyone!

Hello, Trotting WISHers!

The order has been placed! I should have them by Friday (they try to get them out the door in 48 hours and they are coming to NJ from NY, so there's a good chance they'll be here quickly, according to the person I spoke with at the company).

Noah and I will work on getting the labels all printed and the medals in the mail by early next week.

Congratulations! Your medals will be in the mail soon! Woohoo!

Hi Jenn,

Sorry, I'm just being impatient, did you get the medals yet? Are they cool looking? Waiting to get mine and hang it up so I can take a new picture of my "wall"!

ms.mightyduck

12-16-2009, 10:36 PM

Sorry, Suzanne and all.

The medals are IN! I have assembled them (the engraving plates needed to be attached to the back) and we are still working on the label/postage printing. They will be in the mail soon!

I'll take a photo of the Noah wearing one when we find our camera (we are still unable to unpack from our move last month).

Jen: just confirmimg you got my payment. You sent me a reminder about a week or more after I made the PayPal transaction. I sent you an email saying that I had already paid, but never heard back from you. Please confirm everything is in order. Thanks!

12-17-2009, 10:22 AM

Hey Jenn! Cool news on the medals :thumbsup2 Can't wait to see them :woohoo: Didn't realized you had just moved! :eek: Good luck finding the camera! Wow! Moving before the holidays and Marathon Weekend! Yikes! LOL

Happy Holidays!!!!

ms.mightyduck

Of course, Saturday we were snowed in. Working on getting the medals out today (tomorrow at the latest). We only have one car that can drive with all this ice. Mustang is sleeping in the driveway.

Yes, we moved the first week of November. We bought my parents' house, but their new house isn't ready yet. They probably won't move out for a few more weeks/a month or so. As a result, we can't really unpack anything for now because we have two houses of stuff here. Good thing it's a pretty big house!

Jeanne, for some reason your payment had come through as "Pending," and shortly after I send you the reminder it finalized as paid. I'm not sure what the deal is on why it worked out that way, but it finally came through.

Have a great week, every one!

Duckie (and Noah, who has been pressed into service)

ms.mightyduck

Took three hours, but all the postage is printed (a few wouldn't print) and sealed in envelopes. Headed to the post office to get them in the mail. :-)

12-21-2009, 02:59 PM

Wow Thanks Duckie and Noah!!! I can't wait to get my medal and really appreciate all your hard work!

ms.mightyduck

12-21-2009, 03:32 PM

Let me clarify-my mother helped with the envelopes. Noah is out with my dad doing home improvement stuff so that my parents can move out some day. :-)

So thanks, Mom! :-)

Happy holidays to all.
