Rumor has it that the average American may consume more than 4,500 calories on Thanksgiving Day. You sit around the dinner table passing around plate after plate, casserole after casserole and before you know it, your plate is a mile high and you’re ready to dig in.

Before you prepare yourself to lose that button on your pants this holiday, consider signing the family up for a Thanksgiving Day workout. Spending some quality family time before dinner and relaxation will make your holiday a whole lot happier and healthier.

This Thanksgiving morning, November 23, 2017, join CrossFit and Sweat Ocean City to burn some calories and support Town Cats!  At the Ocean Pines South Gate Pond/Veterans Memorial Park, participate in ThanksKitten, a fun 2.5 mile run/walk.

Families, kids and pets are invited to enjoy this 2.5 mile run/walk that will consist of 3 laps around the pond with several optional exercise stations throughout each lap. Registration will open at 8 AM, warm-up will start at 8:45 AM and the fun run/walk will start at 9 AM.

To participate in ThanksKitten it will be $10 per person plus a cat supply donation. Supplies needed are: Friskies Canned Cat Food-Turkey Pate, Clumping Cat Litter, Purina One Kitten Food and Gas Cards for Spay and Neuter Runs.
