The Turkey Trot is a cross country race put on by MATC and held in Warner Park. There are two options for the run: 5k and 5 mile. The 5k seemed to be the more popular choice, and there were only about 40 some runners for the 5 mile. The 5 mile route does a 1.9 mile route before they end up on the same course as the 5k.
The route is actually really nice through wooded areas. It's essentially two loops. The first loop has a daunting looking hill that we approach head on, but on the second loop, the route takes us on a more gradual ascent up the same hill. Turns out I totally prefer the first loop and facing that hill head on because then it's over in seconds. A gradual uphill ascent takes a mental toughness that I had little of this morning.
