The City of Des Moines now has a network of 10 odor monitors that provide 24/7 odor data of three industries in the area of SE 18th and Maury.

Having pin-point data for each of the three businesses will help the City and businesses improve air quality.

Perfect running morning yesterday for the Des Moines IMT Marathon events! I had a second-place 5k finish (31:14 chip time) in the 70-74 age-group. Craig Lein shot this snap at Principal Park less than a mile from the Court Avenue finish line.

Nice day for a walk! Wednesday was some state-promoted day for a 30-minute walk as part of Iowa's healthiest state program. This group, organized by The Avenues of Ingersoll and Grand, walked from 29th ML King and returned.
