Runners dressed as Thanksgiving turkeys and Native Americans flooded the Indian Trails Middle School track early Thanksgiving morning on Thursday, Nov. 26. This year marked the fourth-annual Feet to Feast 5/15K run, as a part of the Palm Coast Running Series. The 15K runners started first, at 7:45 a.m., with the 5K runners following ten minutes behind. The race course took the runners along the surrounding sidewalks and trails.
“I am doing this so I can go home and eat a lot without feeling guilty,” 5K runner Jill Softley said.
“…Our precursor to eating,” Amanda Pannone joked. This was the first year the two ladies dressed up as Native Americans to run 3.1 miles.
Many families have made the Feet to Feast run a Thanksgiving Day tradition. “This year we have 11 family member running the 5K together,” Priscilla Saunders said. “Last year I think there was 18 of us.”
Once runners completed the race a healthy breakfast was provided to start off a full day of feasting.
