5th Annual Baxter Turkey Run

More than 350 Turkey runners braved subzero temperature to raise money for charity and to jump-start their metabolism before their big Thanksgiving meal.
The runners says clothing was the key to their success in finishing the race before turning into an icicle.
It was negative 5 degrees at the start of the race, but that didn’t stop these turkey trotters from running for a good cause.
Whether they ran on two legs or all four. They runners say the race was a lot of fun. And this morning’s winner was even shocked by the prize he won.
The winning time was just under 16 minutes and the race’s organizers say it was another successful year.
