Anyways, I got off track. I've been hitting it pretty hard these past six weeks and am super-stoked to get ready for some 5K and 10K races this year. Please check out www.runontexas.com/races for some race listings. Most of these are local to the DFW area, some south and west Texas as well with a couple other states occasionally sprinkled in. As a family we have committed to eating better and moving more, so I'm really excited that we are able to make most of these running events a family outing!
