King Turkey Day Run

06/08/2026

🏃 Training Tip Tuesday

Don't start by running.

Start by walking.

One of the biggest mistakes new runners make is trying to do too much too fast. A consistent walking program is one of the best ways to prepare for a 5K.

Try:
🚶 Walk 20–30 minutes
📅 3 times this week

Small steps today lead to big accomplishments in September.

Have you started training yet?

Training Tip Tuesday
If you’re just getting started, keep it simple:

Don’t focus on distance.
Don’t focus on speed.

Just focus on showing up 2–3 times this week.

That’s how this starts 👟

This isn’t just a race.

It’s a community thing.

It’s families, friends, coworkers… all showing up together.

Whether you’re running, walking, or cheering — you’re part of it.

No pressure…

…but if it’s been on your mind, this is your sign.

One simple tip:

Don’t worry about speed right now.

Focus on time on your feet.

Build the habit first — everything else comes later.

“ I didn’t think I could do it… and then I did.”

That’s how it starts for a lot of people.

Every year, first-time runners show up unsure… and leave proud.

Thinking about it this year?

Do it.

Motivation Monday:
Progress doesn’t come from big moments.

It comes from the small ones.

The days you didn’t feel like it… but went anyway.

Keep showing up. It adds up.
