Freedom 5000

She still has a pep in her step, on Friday July 4th Tanya ran the Claremont 5000(5K). Claremont, Ca is a quaint college town that puts on a fun running event each year on the 4th. We have both run this race in the past, but I decide to sit this year out and be a cheerleader instead. Along with Tanya a circle of our clients and friends ran. They were Allyson,Emily,Yvonne,Becky & David,Jack & children, Alex,Roberto,Rose,Debbi & Tim,Conrad, and Laura.

Shopping with Tanya and Dr. Marc

On Sunday Tanya and I met Tim and Bernadette in Claremont for shopping at the farmers market. The market vendors are many local farmers selling an array of fresh fruits and vegetables. We had a great time tasting and buying.
The first step to become healthier and fitter is to provide your body with healthy foods. Foods that are as close to their original form and unprocessed; are full of healthy nutrients.
I have never seen a TV dinner tree or vine! Catch my drift!
Every nutrient your body needs can be found in it's natural form in fresh fruits and vegetables.

My mother use to tell me about fresh tomatoes so sweet you could eat them like apples, but I never believed her. The grocery store tomatoes I had become accustomed to where dull tasting and washed out. But I tell you she was right, the garden raised tomatoes that I buy at the farmers market are consistently deep red and so so sweet.

Tomato sandwiches have never tasted so good!!
