Thanksgiving was perfect- exactly what I wanted this year! Small group, cold weather, and amazing food! The day began with a rainy, cool run with my favorite running buddy (who refused to look at me for a photo!) it had been raining for the 24 hours before this point, so it was amazing to get … More Thanksgiving Recap
