--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please come join us for the FZN's 1st annual Turkey Day 5k. It begins at 8am at the FZNHQ. There will be prizes and food after! and best of all...it is FREE for everyone!
This is not a chip timed event. It is not a race. It is a family fun activity. Please bring the entire family and join us in our new healthy tradition. Do it for no other reason than to off-set some of the calories you plan on throwing down on Turkey day.
This 5k will be unlike any other 5k you have ever run. In compliance with standard FZN protocol we offer a 5k that meets with our "full-spectrum fitness" philosophy. In other words, after the first lap - you are going to do some exercise, then it is off to the next lap! We are excited about this. Hopefully more running events will copy us in the future and offer more complete fitness events instead of just running.
We at the FitZone Nation would like to take the time on this day to say "thank you" to all who have lent us their support this year. We are grateful for your efforts and sacrifice. We are grateful for your commitment. We are grateful for your spirit and attitude. We are grateful to be a part of your healthy lifestyle changes and feel privileged that you have shared this with us. Most of all, we are thankful for your genuine friendship. It means a lot to us to see you every day. We miss you when you are gone.
So, on this Thanksgiving day we give thanks for you. Happy Thanksgiving, friends!
BTW It is official FZN policy to absolutely pig out on this day. Go tear it up! You have worked hard this year. You have earned it. Then, throw it all away and let's get back after it on Fri.
See you at the 5k.

I can not think of a better way to spend Thanksgiving morning and my 40th Birthday than with all my family and fun friends running a FZN 5k! This is definitely a new family tradition! Thanks so much doing this, my son will be forever talking about the motorcyle ride!

Thanks for the new tradition Neil. Couldn't you just feel the energy in the gym this morning! It was good to see so many people. Wish I could have run with everyone, but I didn't want to risk another 2 weeks off :)

That was so much fun. Loved the fact that my whole family including the dog joined me.
It was my first 5k ever and I ran every inch.

Neil I cannot thank you, Lizz, and Megan enough for all you have done for my health and fitness. I believe running this was my biggest accomplish next to losing the 110 lbs with WW. Finished in 38:10 and very proud of it!
