Welcome to the team! The Wheat Foods Council is proud to partner with seeMOMMYrun to create a “Mom, the Everyday Athlete” nationwide run/walk on Saturday, May 19, 2007. The event enables moms at any fitness level to unite, improve their health and set a world record for the most steps taken by moms in one day.
Get ready for the big day by getting together with your group for a pasta party the night before. The carbohydrates provided by nutrient-rich pasta--whole grain or enriched--will prepare your body for the event and provide the energy you need to go that extra mile.
