Thanksgiving tradition

Fred Geswein is the founder of Fast Freddie's Festive Five-Mile Foot Feast. The race, in its 21st year, is unofficially the oldest ongoing race, conducted on the same course and operated by the same people in the area. As of last week, Geswein already had 650 runners and walkers registered for the race; he expects another 100 to register today and before the event Thursday morning. The race starts and ends at the 4-H Fairgrounds along Green Valley Road. Photograph of Fred Geswein accompanies the article
