The YMCA hosted the 42nd annual Turkey Day Fun Run on Nov. 22 at the Northeast Family branch in Lyndon.
Early risers participated in either a long run of about six miles, a short run of about two miles or fitness walk of the same mileage. A Turkey Trot was held for children. Short sleeve T-shirts and trophies were given to all participants.
