Despite the sisters not joining us this year, we decided to do our local turkey trot again. Connor was excited that he could use his Fitbit to keep track of the steps. The weather was nice so we did not have to bundle up. Our goal was to complete no worse than last year, and Logan and Stuart had a tougher record to beat (38 minutes last year). As soon as the 5K started, Logan was off and Stuart accompanied him. Connor and I started walking, and we came across his classmate and I started talking with the mom. By 1 mile mark, Connor asked about the time, and after some calculation, we worried that if we could even make last year time. So we started jogging on and off the next two miles. Connor got tired toward the end and I had to encourage him to run toward the finish line. As it turned out, we were much faster than last year; we beat it by 10 minutes, finished at 48 minutes. Logan and Stuart did very well too and they finished at 36 minutes, also an improvement.
We walked back home and we already had more than 10k steps by 10am.
