One of my favorite runs of the year is the “Turkey Trot” in Prospect Park. It’s a nice an early 5-miler before you go to pig out.
Last year I ran it in 35:00, and this year I did it in 33:50!! I am almost back down to my best time ever (32:30) from when I was 18 years old.
Going to start incorporating some sprinting and interval work this winter, and I am also going to try to put on a little weight. I am around 167 lbs now, and I want to get up to 175-180 before I cut down for the summer.
Good luck!
