Triumph of the Turkey Trot

Homage to Angie Brandt, Triumph of the Turkey Trot, Konqueror of the 5K, Hero of Historic Downtown York! You set your sights on the 12th Annual YMCA Turkey Trot and, never wavering, trained on the treadmill like Rocky IV in Siberia, persisted through a sustained cold, and braved race day temperatures in the low forties, all the while making those old-school running pants look fine, yes ma’am! You not only finished the race but ran fast enough and strong enough to be annoyed by narrow bottlenecks and dawdling joggers. You earned that stylish poly-cotton long-sleeved race t-shirt, baby! Wear it! Who needs a door-prize frozen turkey or pumpkin pie—you’ve got running pride, sister! Love and admiration from your husband and fellow runner, Mike!
