It's that time again, the birds are chirping, the weather is getting warmer and I'm thinking outside, outside, here I come. So I'm gearing up for my 4th (I've done two in St. Charles & one in Ferguson) 5K run!!! Woohooooo!
Yes I Can!!! |
The one that I'm participating in again this year is the 5th Annual Ferguson Twilight 5K/10K Fun Run. Here's a little info regarding it:
Run or Walk with us in 2014!

I did this last year and posted about it (check it out here) http://yo-yoeatingnomore.blogspot.com/2013/05/44-5k-once-again.htmlwith my girlfriend Chris Biernbaum. I purposed to walk with her -- but when I got there and started walking down the hills I couldn't help but jog down the hills -- until I couldn't (didn't want) to stop jogging. Sorry Chris :-() We had a great time -- and the weather was absolutely spectacular.
If you live in the St. Louis area -- you may want to try this race. It is by far one of the best that I have attended -- and I like the twilight aspect of the race. When I ran my first two they were early in the morning and in May it's usually starts getting warm early. But when you run a twilight race -- 6:30pm-until -- the sun has gone down and it's cooler.
What I enjoyed most about this race is the beautiful community of Ferguson, MO -- with its gorgeous landscapes and homes. So it was change of pace from my other park runs -- and it was a pleasant distraction.
Looking forward to shedding some calories and most of all enjoying the outdoors this spring at the 5th annual Ferguson Twilight 5K/10K Fun Run.
Until next time...
