Hospital Hill Aid Station- Need Help

PEEPS! HH is June 1st. We'd love to host our annual un-official "Get Lei'd" Aid Station but we need at least 5 volunteers including an organizer. The race is only 2 weeks away. We have plenty of leis and signs, just need some friendly available faces! Let's support our greater KC running community!

Protein and its Role in Injury Prevention and Recovery

Most of us are aware of the importance of taking in protein after a workout, especially within the first hour. But did you know that we need protein throughout the day, everyday, in order to prevent injury and perform our best?
