Learn To Run!

We had a fantastic turnout for the Trail Run at Oxbow park Tuesday evening.. 20+ runners and hikers... great fun!   Be sure to check out Mason's updates each week, as he finds a new place to explore time and time again!   Don't let the distance to the run stop you either.. as there is often a Rochester meeting place, then carpool or caravan to the Rave Run....



************************

If you're a non-runner, or someone who has been away from running for a bit, or if you know someone who has said they'd like to start...  Team R.E.D. member Peg Arnold has an opportunity for you!  See a note below from Peg about the clinic she's teaching starting next week.. 

Note:  I will need to consult Millie to find out if Suk Law Firm as any issues with Peg's closing line...

Hello all,


I'll be teaching the Learn to Run clinic at the Running Room!! It is Monday nights for 10 weeks starting next Monday August 22nd at 6pm at the Rochester Running Room. The cost is $49.99 and if you’ve already taken the learn to run class and want to get started again it’s only $40. The clinic is for those that want to learn to run or get back into running, we start out with walk runs of one minute each and increase the minutes weekly. There is an at home training schedule with the class meeting every Monday evening for 10 weeks. At the end of the clinic we will be ready to run a 5K…perhaps the Spirit Run or another fun event.


This is a great way to get back into shape or to start running in a low key no pressure way. The clinic is fun and motivational! Please share this post with anyone you know who has shown an interest in running but wasn't sure how to get started. I hope to see many new faces on Monday!


Think about it!

Please see the contest for the Cadence call in the post below...15 bucks at the Den for the winning entry!

If you're not familiar with a Cadence, there are a couple links in that post that will give you an idea.. but essentially, it's a call and response type chant or song.. it's very fun, and takes your mind off the running, while ensuring you are in rhythm and you are breathing nice and deep. You can not sing cadence without breathing! Cures a lot of side stitches ....
