45 million turkeys are killed every year at Thanksgiving, compared to just 22 million at Christmas. This year, a Thanksgiving dinner will be more expensive than ever - $50.11.

Cartoons for Thanksgiving - The New Yorker

Cartoons for Thanksgiving - The New Yorker | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Thanksgiving is upon us! As someone who’s half English and half American, I normally eat half a turkey on Thanksgiving, with a side of half a fish with half a portion of chips that have all been cut in half lengthways. After that, I watch an entire football game whilst kicking a soccer ball at my television. One of my other holiday traditions, which is less particular to me, is to look at cartoons about Thanksgiving—some of my favorites are in the slide show above. If you need me, I’ll be repairing my broken T.V. whilst clutching my stomach in pain....

How Much You'll Need to Run to Offset Thanksgiving Meals | Daily Infographic

How Much You'll Need to Run to Offset Thanksgiving Meals | Daily Infographic | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it
Are you completely stuffed yet? If not, get to it! You’re in a dining room with family you unfortunately haven’t seen in way too long. In front of you sits some of the nation’s most iconic dishes. Family style sets in and the race begins.

Your cousins dig the serving spoon into the mashed potatoes like a lion’s teeth in prey. Uncle John rips off the turkey leg with the authority of a man of law. The fruit salad is demolished by the young’ns and wine flows like water off glaciers.

Okay, maybe the picturesque Thanksgiving isn’t how we all experience it. Mostly it’s catch-up conversations with family members and the host family stressing out too much while trying to please everyone at once. Yes it’s stressful, yes we eat too much, but there is hope at the end of the tunnel. Running.

After your meal take time to assess how much exercise you’ll need to offset the extreme amount of calories you just put in your body. Today’s graphic will help you add up the time needed out shedding turkey fat.
Jeff Domansky's insight:

Jackson Sanders reminds us that it will take 3-1/2 hours of running to work off the calories from that family Thanksgiving dinner. What the heck! Enjoy yourself and go for a run tomorrow
