32nd Annual Turkey Trot - Garden City, NY - November 27, 2008From David Bryan:  Despite the lack of miles I decided to participate in the Turkey Trot held on Long Island and I am thankful I did.  The race was well organized, the course was flat on streets that were wide, held on a day perfect for running, partly cloudy and 45 degrees.  There were 2300 runners in the race many of them being families.  It was great to see people, fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters and friends running together and encouraging each other along the course.  Running does not need to be a solitary endeavor but in fact running is GREAT FUN when shared with family and friends.  I was happy with my time and effort but more importantly I am happy I am running.

Pequot Thanksgiving Day 5 Miler - Southport, CT - November 27, 2008  -   From  Sherri Goodell - we had a great day to run... cool but not crazy.  It's a fun race with a field of about 3400 participants.  Roland was just shy of his goal to be under 35 minutes because of rolling his ankle around mile 3 or so.  Thankfully, not a serious one.  Me, I had fun - I'm just glad there were a few people behind me.  :)

20th Annual Thanksgiving Day Whitin 5 Miler - Whitinsville, MA - November 27, 2008  -   Tri-Valley was well represented with 22 runners in this race.  Not too cold, no snow, a great day to run! Two pilgrims in full gear running with us.   Several TVFRers placed in the money (and we mean real Ulysses S Grants $$$) - Larry Olsen 1st Veteran, Charlene Gaboriault 1st Veteran, Harry Jarvis 1st Senior, Anne Mackay 1st Master, Kelly Terrill 2nd 50-59, Brandon Mungeam 1st 1-12 and Ray Lussier 2nd 70-79.  New member (as of the day before)  Rhonda Hurley ran in her first road race.  She would have had a better time but stopped to help a child who was having a diabetic reaction.

Luv2Run 5K - Boston, MA - Sunday, November 9 
From John Dumont - I ran a race in Boston (Brighton actually) yesterday 11/9/08 called the Luv2Run Boston 5K.  The race starts in Artesani Park and is typical of a race along the Charles - very flat with the only change of elevation at the two bridges we crossed.  The weather was overcast and around 50 degrees with a good wind.  On a personal note, I have been battling an ankle injury for a couple of months and just recently have started to build some weekly mileage.  Despite this, I was pleased to see I could compete in my age group - pain free!  See you on the roads!!!

2nd Annual Manchester City Marathon - Sunday, November 2Keith with his first race of the year decides on a Marathon in New Hampshire.  Obviously he didn't bite off more than he could chew.  Tenth Place overall and third in his division.  Great job Keith.
From Keith - Temps were 40 degrees (at best) for the start of the race with some wind blowing.  The start was crowded as you had the 1/2 marathon and the full marathon starting at the same time and running the same route for 13 miles.  After being swept up in the excitement and running too fast for the 1st mile, I got into a good pace and stuck to the plan of 6:50 to 7:00 minute pace - at least for the most part.  With 811 feet of climbing over many, many hills, my legs started to feel the pain around mile 21 (after the long climb to St. Anselms college).  Though I did catch 3 runners in the last 4 miles, it was a mental battle all the way.
 
Overall a good race.  Lots of spectators along the way.  Water & Gatorade every 2 miles with some stops having sports gel.  Great traffic control.  Lots of hill throughout and a lot of turns.  By the end, the downhills started to hurt!
