As I am getting older, I am becoming more aware of what I put
into my body and my daily activity. It is so important for us to be healthy,
and living in NYC we sometimes get caught up in our fast paced lifestyle and
don’t make time for healthy living. There are so many activities and races, in
particular, in the Tri-State area.
Here are some 5k races to look out for:
