And we are off! Yesterday was our 15th annual Hospital Hill run/walk. We had approx 200 participants. Best of all…we had great weather! Good turn out, for a good cause…proceeds will go the Prairie Lakes Caring Club House.
Nick after the race…he got 3rd overall…but I was breathing down his neck as I came in 5th. Good day for the race, and Nick had a good 14th birthday as well. The race was initially developed by me 15 years ago as a means to get people out and be active, whether running or walking. Stay healthy, and have fun! Thanks to all my support people for helping to make this event a success…there is no way I could do this by myself. Thanks to all of you for all of your help!

Happy 14th Birthday Nick! He stays very busy between basketball and running, and today won his age group at the Hospital Hill run, which I will show some pictures tomorrow. It was a great day…
…and remember, sometimes it is OK to “splurge” a little with the food/diet, and remember to enjoy life. You make up for it in other ways, activity, decreased portions somewhere else. Remember, enjoy the important things in life when they come, otherwise you may just miss out on them!

Again, the Hospital Hill run is set for this saturday, June 11. Our 15th annual…again starts at 8AM. 5K walk, 5K run, and 1 mile run. Here you are looking at the side of the hospital hill where we finish just over the top.
Here is another view from the top of the hill. The weather is supposed to be a little on the cool side, but no rain. Perfect for a walk/run. Hope to see you there!

Saturday was the 7th Annual Ford Law Office Time Trial bike ride around the lake, followed by the family poker ride. The temp was in the upper 50’s, but the initial ride around the lake was very windy, making for a challenging ride in the open. It was a very good day to be outside though.
Participants are lining up for final instructions prior to starting. Sarah and I went out for a bike ride earlier today, and the winds were very calm today. It made for a very enjoyable, comfortable ride today after racing yesterday. See how the weather holds out for the coming week. Enjoy!

In between rain bursts, hopefully you have had time to enjoy the weekend, and Memorial Day. But remember what Memorial Day is really about…honoring those who died during military service. Don’t forget what they gave up for us.
If you have not gone to see the Veterans Memorial here in Watertown, go see it. It is very nice. Remember again what they did for us. It is located out at City Park, so go out for a walk along the paths here, and go see who from our area sacrificed for us.
