Fight Off Those Holiday Pounds!

Need an excuse to stay in shape this holiday season?  Look no further- I  have the perfect event for you to participate in to shed those holiday pounds – The Shoreline Candy Cane Dash!  I started the event 15 years ago as a community 5K fun run in Shoreline, and now the Dash has become a North Seattle holiday tradition and a great opportunity to stay in shape and celebrate the holiday season! 

New this year, my partners and I at the Orthopedic Specialists of Seattle have provided the lead sponsorship, encouraging all to use this event as an opportunity to have an active community event on your busy calendar of festive, but fattening dinner parties!  Enjoy the scenic flat suburban 3.1 mile course while sweating off that holiday guilt.

Registration is $20 and includes a timing chip, long sleeve t-shirt and a chance at many prizes.  The race is organized by two Shorecrest High School seniors (one, my young energetic sister!) completing their senior project and all proceeds go to support similar unfunded projects and the Shorecrest cross country team.

Don’t delay! Sign up now at www.candycanedash.weebly.com or stop by my office for a registration form and reserve a spot on your busy holiday schedule for an opportunity to stretch those muscles and support a great local cause!
