If you look at the wall of fame, you will notice we have had alot of well known artist at the trot to perform.
This year it is the Kentucky Headhunters and Confederate Railroad.
OK Timmay. Y'all raise Racing Turkeys? Or do you just race turkeys?
Turkey Racing.....It's something like horse racing, only a little smaller and a little slower.
I'd love to see the jockey that races Turkeys.
Timmay, can you post a pic of one?

I quit smoking 6 months ago after doing it for 23 years. I did it cold turkey. I think the only way you are truly going to stop is to WANT to do it and DO IT. All these stop smoking things are a bunch of crap in my opinion. Good luck Fr8 on keeping smoke free.

Howdy Bald bad brother,
have RUN 16 MARATHONS and countless 5k &10k's. I'll be doing the Disney Marathon in Jan. of 09.
The older you get the harder it is to train and come back from breaking down. The cig deal I have never done but we all have our personnel demons. Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things.

Bump.
New to the site. count me among the runners and recreational cyclists. I've done somewhere around 55 races in the last three years of various distances. My first race with a shave head was two weeks ago. I was 2nd in my age group. Of course there were only two people in my age group but hey- I attribute the trophy to the new more aerodynamic head. -

I started running back in 1981, and ran 5+ miles a day, every day. Ran several 10k's in those years. Backed off a lot after a while for some now forgotten reason, but never quit completely
I've run a couple of 5k's in recent years, and have maintained 2-3 miles 2-3 times a week, mixed in with weight training at the gym and kayaking out on the lake once a week.
Last June I really messed up my knee (and shoulder), and just recently started jogging a couple of miles once in a while. It still hurts and I always wear a brace when I run or work out. Makes me mad; at my age (58) my legs were the strongest part of my body and never hurt no matter what I did.
At the start of the year, I set a goal to get back to 5 miles runs again. Hope to get there maybe next year. -

Challenge - good luck getting back into it. I turned 50 this year and just started running about 4 years ago. I can relate to the injuries. The spirit is willing but the body sometimes disagree's. I've been thinking about getting a kayak myself. Looks like it could be a great workout or a relaxing day at the lake.

Ray, a kayak is both a great upper body workout, and a good way to relax. I paddle 2-4 miles out on the lake and take my fly-rod and fish a while, or pack a folding chair in the back of the 'yak and set it up on the beach and read for a while; of course you get the workout again by paddling back. The weather is changing up here and I won't get it out too many more times.
At the gym yesterday I was able to bench 175 lbs again for the first time since before my injury so at least I know my shoulder is healed.
