Health & Fitness in April

April started off strong as I ramped up to my half marathon mid-month.  I trailed off a bit after that, but I am planning to challenge myself throughout May with daily ab and squat workouts.  I also signed up for a 10k in mid-June so I want to work on improving my stamina and speed for that race.  Here's a look back at April...
