What would crossing a Thanksgiving morning finish line mean to you?If signing up for a 5K makes you a little nervous, that's a normal way to feel at the start. You don't have to be a runner yet. You don't have to know if you can do it. You only have to be willing to find out.
Grateful Strides is my free beginner 5K program for walkers, walk-runners, and runners. It's six weeks of training with a real finish line at the end: the Valpo Turkey Trot 5K on Thanksgiving morning. Walking counts. Being a beginner counts. Coming back after years away counts.
It starts with a Meet & Greet.
Saturday, October 10 at 9:00 a.m.
Fairgrounds Park, North Entrance
704 McCord Road, Valparaiso
No pressure and no commitment. Come say hello and ask questions.
If the weather is not ideal for an outside event, the Meet & Greet moves to Brokerworks, 9 Lincolnway, Valparaiso. I will post an update on this event page by Friday evening if we move.
