Runners, walkers, joggers, shufflers, curious newbies, kids, this event is for you!!!!

I want to do this event, I know the course will be beautiful! 

This event seems like it has a little something for everyone.  There's a 1k Kid's event, even the little ones get a bib number for their run.  The men and women have their own individual 5k event, which is pretty cool.

Oh, and if you are a newbie to exercise but want to try it out there's a 2-mile walk! This might be a good option for you if you're a pre-op or just had surgery and are trying to get an exercise routine going. 

The course is very scenic, and local restaurants will be offering samples of food at the finish line. Better than a banana or bagel!!!

Here's the event's website: http://www.cdmchamber.com/events/5k.asp

Sign up! It's going to be a good event! 

Sometimes I hear about them from my other friends who run, but I also look up events on www.active.com You can find all sorts of events besides running/walking and search by zipcode so they're generally in your area.

Willa and Nancy, maybe we can all do this together?  I don't know about running a 5K, my knees won't like it, but maybe walking/running?  Let me know.  It would be good to get together and catch up on everything. Laura
