Effective Thanksgiving 2008, the race formerly
known as the Turkey Beach Trot will be CHANGED to
the TURKEY TRAIL TROT (T3), to be held Thanksgiving
Morning at the Polo Field in Golden Gate Park.

Due to US Code Title 16, Section 1538, and "concerns"
from the Audubon Society, running events are no
longer permitted at Ocean Beach, a federally
protected habitat for the anti-Turkey
and anti-Trot Snowy Plover.

Apparently, no one paid attention to this US Code

Turkey Beach Trot in 2003-2006.

PILGRIMS AT SEAL ROCKS?
    


Revisionist historians in San Francisco believe that the
Pilgrims did not, in fact, land at Plymouth Rock. Evidence
leads them to assert that the visitors from England landed
instead at Seal Rocks, off the shores of SF's Ocean Beach.
   

Runners ponder, "Did the Pilgrims actually land at Seal Rocks?"
  
Whether they landed at Plymouth Rock or Seal Rocks,
the Turkey Trail Trot is dedicated to these Pilgrims,
to the friendly Natives they encountered, and to all
who enjoy good eats and trotting. Happy Holidays!
   
Be hungry. Be very hungry.
