I'm doing a 6K and trying to shoot for about a 24:00. It will be a good indicator for how well I can do 4K when AAU Nationals come around.

alot of schools have a pond jump. but last year the firfighters made the kids get out after a certain amount of time before they would get sick or seriously ill.
the runners dont do it. but one year i will.. if my coach lets me..

We have the Polar Bear Plunge. A bunch of people jump in the Ohio River in the middle of the winter for charity. It's awesome. I'm gonna do it this year

Re: Turkey Trottin'
I just jogged mine, a hilly 5k in about 25 minutes
There were over 1400 people on a tiny little street and I was tripped about 200m in and fell on my face lololol.
But it was fun.
