It’s official! I’ve begun! No, not milking! Getting in shape for the Dairy Dash on Sat., Aug. 11 at Dairyfest. Now is the time to get that body mooving if you want to take part and feel great doing it. The Dairy Dash has 5 and 10-kilometre options and I intend to run the whole way. Remember that if a 5 k run or walk isn’t your thing, there is also the family-friendly 2 kilometer Holstein Scamper to consider. No matter what your athletic ability, if you start now there is no reason you can’t be ready to “do the dash!”
