Join the Warrior Dash Obstacle Course Race #WarriorDashNation #WarriorWeek
I really love a good 5K. I have been doing them with my family for years and we enjoy doing them together. They are a great way to get outside in the fresh air and get some exercise plus I love bonding with my kids over fitness related things. This year, I am excited to announce that we are doing the Warrior Dash as a family. We hope that you love this Join the Warrior Dash Obstacle Course Race #WarriorDashNation #WarriorWeek post.
Keeping our New Year's resolution to do at least one 5K per month as a family is very important. We love doing healthy things as a family and our chances for success are much better when we do it together. The Warrior Dash looks like so much fun. All three kids and my husband are beyond excited to do the Atlanta Warrior Dash in April.
