Thanksgiving Day is almost here. There are many great traditions, and I've just discovered a new one that will get you up and ready for the day of food, family, and football. It's the Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot.

The Thanksgiving Morning Metabolism Boost

This is a great way to get that metabolism rocking for all the delicious food you plan on having later in the day. Plus, it's all for a great cause.

The 12th Annual Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot 5K and Kids Fun Run will take place on Thursday, November 27. The event will be from 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM at Spring Lake Park. With the event taking place in the morning, you'll have plenty of time to finish up any last-minute preparations for the day.
