Are you planning on starting your Thanksgiving “right” by running a “turkey trot” before you gobble down your Thanksgiving feast? Trying to find (or make) your very own costumes for a Thanksgiving running costume? Luckily we have an idea or two that will be perfect for every turkey trot.
Want to honor the participants of the very first Thanksgiving? Why not run your turkey trot dressed as a pilgrim? Here’s everything you’ll need…
