Retro Post: Turkey Day Victories 1 year ago

Hey Everyone,

This post has been archived for well over a year.  For whatever reason I couldn't make the photos work in the Blogger software.  Then the snow fell and I dropped the blog ball.  Maybe Spencer has a follow up post we can pair it with....

Last Sunday, myself and fellow Far West Farm Team teammates ran in the annual Truckee Turkey Trot. While some early season snow has been great for skiing, conditions shorted the race this year to a <2 mile frolic around a local park in a foot of new fallen snow. With some fast running and luck (my contribution) we made out pretty well as a team. Beth Taylor of Bates on the right won the women's race and a turkey, Noah  Brautigam, of Middlebury in the middle, won the men's race a turkey and a pie, and myself on the far left managed to post a respectable time and win a pie in the raffle. All in all it was a pretty good day for hungry skiers.


Soon we will be on the road to West Yellowstone and the following Bozeman Supertour races. If any Polar Bear alumni will be in the area and are looking to go for a ski, feel free drop me a line at seusden@gmail.com. Additionally, this two week adventure of a road trip will be duly chronicled on the Far West Farm Team Blog at http://farwestnordic.org/seniorblog/.
