Runners hit the streets in Winnipeg on a sunny Thanksgiving Day morning — with the promise of a post-run turkey sandwich.

The Turkey Trot five-kilometre social run kicked off at 11 a.m. Oct. 13. It was organized by Rally, City Park Runners and Little Brown Jug Brewing Company, where participants could stop for a post-run beverage to go with their turkey sandwiches from the Manitoba Turkey Association.
