This week we have two race recaps! Both Meagan and Sue share their training and Turkey Trot races, plus we continue to enjoy Running with Sherman in Meagan's Book Club, our Runner Girl of the Week runs an astounding 18 miles with 13 of them on the treadmill, and Meagan's new favorite runner sets a PR dressed as a turkey. All this and more on this week's Runner Girls!
