News in Eugene: Marathon

The Eugene Marathon had at least 6, 000 entrants from 48 states, and 4 countries. I was there with Dr. John Baumann cheering on athletes and promoting TriVita's new product, Nopalea, which helps prevent inflammation.

Though everyone who attempted the Eugene marathon Sunday morning was a winner, we would like to take the time to congratulate winner of the marathon, Matt Hooley. Of course, we would also like to congratulate all the other veteran and first-time-marathoners who braved the rain Sunday.

Following our theme this week we would like to encourage all participants and non-participants to make an effort to walk a bit more this week. Walking 10,000 steps a day can dramatically affect your health positively. Make an attempt to increase the steps you walk in a day by parking your car a little farther out, walking to the store, taking your dog on a walk or getting up an hour early to take a stroll through the park.
