Michigan Tech Lode
Annual Turkey Trot
a successful event once again IAN HATZILIAS Lode Writer The Turkey Trot is an annual event held either rain or shine by IntramuralRec Services at Michigan Tech. This year’s race took place last Thursday on Oct. 17th. Contestants could not have asked for a better day to run with the weather being comfortably mild, unlike last year where it was snowing and sleeting by the end of the race. In the women’s student division, placing first was Leigh Miller and Elizabeth
Waters placed second. Shannon Brodeur came in first in the women faculty and staff division with Alane Isaacson trailing behind her in second place. Troy Drabek and David Waters took first and second, respectively, in the men’s student division. Last but not least, Joel Vertin took first place in the men’s faculty and staff division. The course for the trot was around the grounds of the SDC on campus. Runners began at the tennis center, went around the soccer fields, to Sherman Field and ended back at the tennis center. The total distance covered by the trotters was estimated to be 1.5 miles.
“Participants were appreciative of the togetherness and camaraderie the Turkey Trot brought.” Roughly 20 people participated last Thursday, 17 of whom were students, and the remaining three were faculty and staff members. The event is a good way for the faculty and staff of Michigan Tech to connect and learn more about the students. “The Turkey Trot was a fun, relaxed run,” said participant David Waters. He enjoyed the low-stress environment brought by the run and enjoyed the exercise.
The best part of the run was the chance to win one of three turkeys. Those who complete the run are eligible to win. Both the Waters siblings won a mug and a turkey for placing second. The turkeys will be awarded in November, just in time for Thanksgiving. In good Husky spirit, as runners were finishing the race, they waited at the finish line to cheer on those still on the track. “No one worried about their time or pace,” noted Elizabeth.
