Another year, another turkey trot.  Keep getting slower and slower.  Finished in 21:39.  I present the following list of excuses:

-it was very cold, which made breathing difficult

-it's a terrible course that makes correct pacing difficult

-I was wearing an incorrect version of the latest supershoes

In reality I am getting older and I never race 5k's anymore, so this is about what I should expect.  If I want to reach my goal of a sub 20 after I turn 50 I have some work to do.  Which I probably won't do as most of my goals for the upcoming year involve longer distances. 

In better news, Mookie finished his first race, even finding an old tennis ball on the course.
