Event comments:

First year they have done it so there are a few bugs to work out. Need portapotties at the race, a drink station at the mid way point, a photographer, a few more volunteers overall. No post race activities right there because Viking Days is going on at the museum about one mile away. Race would be better if it could end at the museum or bring some vendors down to the race site.

In November of 2000, I noticed that I was losing the feeling in my toes. The sensation traveled up my body and within a week, I was nearly 80% paralyzed.

First, with your upcoming 5K, I strongly advise you to check out the “Couch to 5K” training schedule. This training schedule is a GREAT way to get back into running safely and wisely.

If you are like many runners you may be frustrated at racing 5K distances and never being able to run them faster. Improve your race pace with this flexible 12 week program.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve had weight issues. I remember standing on the scale as a child weighing 60 pounds and feeling fat. My family dealt with stress by eating.
