Friday Photo: Minneapolis Turkey Trot

December 2nd, 2011

My daughter, Ashley participated in this year’s Thanksgiving Turkey Trot.  Here we are at the start of the race and then a nice photo of a familiar river bank site along the course.

The inaugural race began in 1989 in downtown Minneapolis.   The LifeTime Fitness Turkey Day 5K  has grown to host upwards of 15,000 fun-loving walkers, joggers and runners every Thanksgiving morning since then.

Besides becoming a local tradition for many, the event helps to supply the pantries of local food shelves with a record of 50,000 pounds of food being collected on race day.
