Training Plan For Your First 5K Race

Running your first 5K race is a magical thing! You train, you run, and you realize you like the adrenalin of the race and crossing the finish line is a unique high.

And don't even get me started on the mile run at school we'd sporadically do twice a year - I HATED running. In college, I developed asthma and now I have to take 2 kinds of medicine everyday - if I don't, I can't even carry on a Read more

Despite the well-known fact that everyone alive today will kick the bucket at one point or another, nearly 60 percent of Americans admitted in a 2011 poll conducted by online legal service Rocket Lawyer that they didn't have a will.
