This year was the first year that the TPC Golf Club opened up the course to non members for a 5k on Thanksgiving. I ran over to the start line – about 3ish miles (walked the last half). It was a bit chilly with the wind.
I hung out in the club house to keep warm before the start and met up with some of my MoTR friends. They had coffee and donuts, it was a lovely way to stay warm before the race.
The 5k was on the front 9 of the golf course. It surprisingly had quite a few rolling hills. I ran with a couple friends up until about 1.5 miles and then took off running 8ish pace to catch up with another friends. We finished the last mile together.
