Clean Up. Eat up. Throw down (not throw up haha). Get weight down. Tell a friend around. How's that sound? Dr. Seuss, what's good.

Local Arizona Races To Register For!

From Day 1, setting up success is as easy as thinking it, then saying it, then doing it. Writing down affirmations and goals is the key to physically keep your mind in check. A good way to keep motivated is to have a tangible goal at the end (or checkpoint), so that you have something to work towards. The following below are a bunch of races is MAY you can register for. These are 5K races, or 3.11 miles, where you can either walk or run, going thru obstacles or run straight, do it for fun or do it for charity. Either way, you're going for a good cause... yourself!

Few of my friends register for races months a head of time to remind us to keep staying at a level of fitness so that when race time comes, we don't lag behind the pack. I was fortunate enough to have my cousin, Kuya Don, put me through the worst of them all, the Tri-State Tough Mudder in the middle of November 2010. I've done Race for the Cure for my Kuya's mom (breast cancer survivor, bless her soul) and Kidney Walks for my good friend and successful recording artist, David Rush. I loved the feeling of showing off my fitness at these races as well as bring my friends along for the journey. It was important to me to keep training months before the Tough Mudder began because of how in-shape my cousin and his friends were. There were days I absolutely hated working out and going to the gym, but at the end of the day, I was better than I was walking in, which helped me keep up with the 8 other marines.

The follow links are races YOU can sign up for in May. There are other races in June you can participate and I'll post a few. If you want a goal, here it is! Work hard, race hard! The link to the official websites are on the titles of the events. Good luck! And congrats ahead of time!
