We have a race coming up this weekend called the High Heel Dash and it benefits Children's Miracle Network. Now the race is open to both men and women and while we ladies may know how to walk in high heels, running is a completely different story. As for our men; well all I can say is good luck! Actually, my boss found an article on How to Run in High Heels and I thought it was a joke at first but it wasn't. This article actually gives you some pointers on how to run in heels and then I found a video that also gave some good tips. So I thought I would share.

Abilene is home to quite a few extraordinary men and women, many of whom serve (or have served) in the military and also those who are local first responders (police, firefighters, EMS). Townsquare Media is honored to be a part of this great community and would like to thank those who put their lives on the line each and every day.

Please, join us in honoring our Hometown Heroes by thanking them for their willingness to sacrifice their lives for the freedom we enjoy daily. Not only do these heroes put their lives on the line day in and day out, but they also sacrifice time with their families that we take for granted.

Kevin Fowler will be playing in Abilene tonight at the Lucky Mule Saloon. I have known Kevin for many years and consider him a friend, not just a musician.

I think I'm great; Kevin claims he needs a crash helmet.

As the start of 2013 came and went, I came to the realization that, while I offered some suggestions that I believe are pretty good, I hadn't actually chosen one of my own. So, I decided to put a resolution that I've been holding on to for years to task: learning to play a m

It's no secret that one of my favorite TV shows is 'The Voice'. But if you're not like me, and looking for a little extra incentive, watch the NBC hit show to root for Holly Tucker. The country singer who was chosen to be on 'Team Blake' has family and close ties in Clyde, Texas.
