Do you feel like working out before your Thanksgiving meal, but have little motivation to do so? Are you not doing much on Thanksgiving Day? Maybe you feel like jogging around town to support a good cause. If any of these apply to you, then the Turkey Trot is for you! Come to the Second Annual “Type 1 Willpower” Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving (November 28) around 9:00 am. Whether you plan to run or walk, you’ll get the chance to take a scenic route around town, starting and ending at the Mountain Lakes Club.
All net proceeds from the event will go towards the Type 1 Willpower’s beneficiaries. These include the Diabetes Research Institute, which focuses on finding a biological cure for diabetes, and educational camps for kids with Type 1 diabetes. The objective of these camps is to empower the kids and teach them how to better manage their diabetes.
Registration for the event costs 30 dollars, and the price will increase the day of the event. There is also the option to give a small donation to the non-profit organization. This year, the Willpower hopes to raise $20,000 from the turkey trot. You can sign up any day in advance or sign up on the day of the trot; however, those who registered by November 1 will be given a free long-sleeved T-shirt!
The organization will do wonders for families with diabetic members, so if you are available to attend, or even donate, it would be greatly appreciated!
