This week Meagan recaps her Turkey Trot 5K and Sue goes for a walk. We brainstorm ideas for our next book selection in Meagan’s Book Club. Our Runner Girl of the Week starts her holiday run streak. And in Running News: smoking cigarettes during a marathon; being awesome at both ultramarathons and climbing; and 100K race winners finish holding hands.
