Yesterday, while running through Darien, Ironwoman and I were chased along the Post Road by three wild turkeys. No, by "wild turkeys," I do NOT mean Sunriseman, Cookies and Tullyman -- I mean real, bona-fide WILD TURKEYS who have taken up residence at the new HSBC Bank Branch across the street from the Doubletree Hotel on the Norwalk-Darien line.We've seen these turkeys before, but aside from a few verbal taunts ("MY MAMA IN COMBAT BOOTS RUNS FASTER THAN YOU, BOCK BOCK BOCK" or "HEY WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THAT BRIGHT PINK JACKET YOU USED TO WEAR, BOCK BOCK BOCK"), they've never bothered us. Yesterday, though, as we passed them by, they clucked (Bocked?) at us, and then BOOM, took off in hot pursuit behind us to the end of the block. They almost caught up, too (probably going a sub 6:00 minute mile pace, showoffs).I am now afraid to run by the bank - do you think that the turkeys are in cahoots with the squirrels? Or were they trying to turn our training run into a turkey trot? How do I deal with this problem.(The above story is FOR REAL, btw).

Now that Jacketless and Ironwoman know that these three turkeys reside at a bank in Darien, they should sue each of them for three quadrillion dollars.
