Walkers with walkers

What the heck am I talking about??  Walkers with walkers??...

On this past gorgeous Sunday, Thompson held a Turkey Wobble (walk) and Turkey Trot (run) through the woods and trails in their park.

While we runners were out doing our impressions of mountain goats over rocks and stumps, over hill and dale, the walkers were finishing up their walk.

Apparently a 70+ woman completed the walk - with the help of her walker. That could not have been easy.

GaryO from WINY was broadcasting live and interviewed her. When asked why she did this difficult walk, she replied that it was on her bucket list. She got a spontaneous round of applause from the gathered crowd.

GaryO reported the scoop to me when I got out of the woods and my race was finished. I believe that he was as excited and inspired as the walker-walker was.

The amazing thing is that Thompson has a Turkey Dip (swim) scheduled for Thanksgiving morning. The walker-walker informed us that she will be a walker-swimmer that day!

I am a Putnamaniac because people of all ages really love to live life!
