FORT RUCKER, Ala. (November 24, 2011) -- The Fort Rucker Physical Fitness Center hosted more than 200 runners in the Turkey Trot 5k and 10k Nov. 19. Kristi Funk, run coordinator, encouraged more participation in upcoming runs, "It's good to have events that encourage fitness and patrons seem to enjoy them. I would encourage everyone to come out, you do not need to run to participate -- we have walkers, too!"

Winners of the Turkey Trot 5k were Jacen Landos, with a time of 17:49, and Emily King, with a time of 20:16. Turkey Trot 10k winners were Michael Spears, who crossed the finish line at 37:53, and Ashley Romani, with a time of 40:54.
