A Thanksgiving Run


Happy Thanksgiving! I love this time of year and this will be the first year that our family has participated in a Turkey trot. Annalise and mom were spectators/cheering squad and Jeremiah and dad were the runners.
Jeremiah was really excited about his first race. He ran 60 yards and did not stop once. After he finished, he wanted to do it again. Where do they get all the energy? Then he remembered he was supposed to get a ribbon but unforntunately they ran out of ribbons and amazingly enough for a 2 year old he wasnt that upset. Later he was given a shirt as a consolation prize. (Personally, the shirt was much cooler than the ribbon) Here is a video of Jeremiah's race. He was a little late starting but you will see him and Brian coming in the center of the video.


Brian ran the 4 mile turkey trot next. It was his first race post-surgery and he felt really good. We have so much to be thankful for and feel blessed for the friends and family we have in our lives. Happy Thanksgiving....the Clarkes
