AF Turkey Trot 5k 2014

After a year since running my last event (Thanksgiving Half Marathon), I finally was able to slowly participate in a 5k run.  A couple months ago the organizers for the the AF Turkey Trot approached us about being the beneficiaries of the 2014 Turkey Trot.  This event has been happening for 6 years now, each year benefiting a local family going through a difficult medical condition.  We were honored and grateful to accept the invitation.  To out pleasant surprise and enjoyment, a large crowd of friend and family showed up to support us, and we all had a fun morning together running around the temple 4 times.  Our family has been so blessed by our community during the past 9 months.  My run was slow when comparing it with runs a year ago, but I did it.  Better times are ahead.
