The Animal Aid Station 2019
Thank you Castle Peak Volunteers!
If you spend much time on the local bike paths, you probably have seen Lauren and her adorable toddler Killian, as they spend a lot of time running together! The next time you do, make sure to introduce yourself, particularly if you are another parent with a little one, as Lauren is an incredibly friendly and social woman and Killian is always up for a playdate. Although there are no longer any former
stroller runs, if you like to run with your kids and are looking for a partner, Lauren would almost certainly be interested in joining you and showing you the best spots to run with a stroller. more here...

When "Fast all the Time" by Nylithia started playing, I literally started laughing out loud. Add it to your endurance playlist and it might do the same for you. Note that it's effect
does not translate to the couch. (Credit goes to my friend and trainer Chris Cloyd for the song recommendation).... Read more
