Work it out Wednesday: Prepare for the Feast

Hey all!




Why Sign up for a road race on Thanksgiving? 

Just think, the typical Thanksgiving meal contains anywhere from 1400-3,000 calories (depends on how many times you go up for "seconds"). Conteracting that amount of calories is tough to do if you aren't active on Thanksgiving (and most likely the day after-SHOPPING!). 

Also, if you sign up for a road race, it is most likely going to be held in the morning which may actually set you up for making healthier choices during the day. 
Today after you sign up for your road race, plan on doing a walk/run that is the distance of your race if you can. Even doing half the distance works!

Do Something Healthy for Yourself,
