To all the Thanksgiving Fort Dissers:
Here in Birmingham, Alabama where I live there is a 10k race (6.2 mile) on every Thanksgiving Day morning that is the oldest continuous race in town (over 30 years straight). I have done it for many years (although not the last 2) because it's a good feeling to burn off some calories to make room for the ones you are about to eat.
I'm in no shape to do 6 miles. I'm in no shape to run. But I still like the idea of burning off some calories to make room for the new ones. Would anyone be interested in maybe doing a walk on Thanksgiving morning for about 45 miutes-1 hour around the Fort sidewalks? Pace to be determined by the group but should be something we can all handle; no race, I'm calling it a walk. We could meet at the Meadow Trading Post maybe 7:30 a.m. (on the 900 loop side), get in a walk while it's still cool, and make room for the pumpkin pie and turkey/dressing.
Let me put it another way - I'm going to do a walk on Thanksgiving morning and it would be fun to have some Dissers to talk with. I don't know if anyone willing wants to start earlier or later but I am flexible.
I also mentioned this in the Official Thanksgiving Day post but I wanted to do it as a seperate post to get the most visibility and attendees. Just think of that guilt-free piece of pumpkin pie! I hope 7:30 a.m. is early enough to avoid turkey cooking time and entice some of the cooks to come join us as well. So if you can possibly join us please do - we'll have fun.
I won't have access to the boards/DIS once I get to the Fort on Sat 11/21 so if anyone has a question come find me in a partial loop (1500 or 2000); we'll be easy to spot with all the Alabama Crimson Tide stuff around the campsite.
I hope to see all of you there!
