    Outwest Balloon Fest!

    Hi Everyone! I hope you are all having a great Thursday! It is a rainy and cold day here in Arizona. I am not complaining though since I love the rain.

    Color Dash 5k Review

    Hey Everyone, Last year I participated in the Color Dash 5k. I figured I would re-share my experience so that if you were considering a color race in the new year you’d know what to expect. I purchased entry to this race from Groupon for about $29. I have run 3 other color races and have loved all of them! Unfortunately, this race was not one that I loved.While there were a few pro’s to this race the con’s far outweighed them. Pro’s *You got to choose your shirt color. They offered four different choices of shirt color for your race shirt. * Smaller Crowds *Easy Parking * Local Event…
