KC Running Company is awesome about sending out information about local runs and walks, and I love passing it on. I hope to get back into some walks, and I have a huge goal to start jogging this month! Just a little at a time until I can work my way up to a 5K.

Rock the Stockyards 5K is the hottest 5K in Kansas City! This evening race, hosted by Stockyards Brewing Company on Saturday, August 18th, 7:30 pm, will take you and a thousand or more of your sweaty friends through the streets of the historic Stockyards District in Kansas City's West Bottoms.
Your reward for beating the heat will be a free concert after the race. Admission is free for participants; $10 on site for everyone else. The event benefits the Police Athletic League (PAL).

On a personal note, here's my walking story for National Walking Day a couple of years ago with an update.
