5K and 10K Running Clinics starting soon






For those who missed out on the first clinic given by Kari Tithecott, you are in luck!

Kari it putting on 2 clinics for a 5k and 10k run.

So, who can join in ?

The 5km intro/novice program is suitable for anyone from the complete novice to those who are looking for a safe and rewarding environment to begin running again. The clinic goal is to guide motivated individuals through a 10 week run/walk program to safely complete a 5k run at the end of the clinic. (*Prerequisite: ability to run 4 min continuously)

The 10k clinic is a novice program suitable for anyone who has been doing some run training and is looking for a safe and rewarding environment to begin running longer distances. The goal is to guide motivated individuals through a 14 week run/walk program to safely complete a 10k race (road or trail) at the end of the clinic. (ability to run 10 min continuously)

During the clinics, Kari introduces us to a variety of topics that will be beneficial to our growth as runners. Clinic leader(s) will be on hand to ensure you are running properly to help prevent injury and to help answer any questions you may have.

CLINIC TIME AND DATES:

5k clinic - July 5th to September 6th, 2011 - $55.00
10k clinic - June 20th to September 29th 2011 $80.00

How does it work?

the group meets once a week 'as a clinic', then each runners must dedicate other times during the week to keep up with the training schedule -
can't make the clinic time? No problem, you can still join the group - Kari will keep you in the loop every week with the training schedule and tools to help with your running, and then you also get access to the emails of all the other runners. You can then email other runners and let them know what time works for you and more than likely, you'll end up with a few people to run with you.
So even if you don't live in Nakusp, or the clinic time doesn't work for you, YOU CAN STILL JOIN THE CLINIC!

I cannot say enough good things about Kari's ability to lead a group to success; running with a group provides motivation, camaraderie, and support to keep you running and help you meet your fitness goals. It is FUN and at the same time healthy and rewarding.

All the forms are available at the store so you can pick up anytime.

Happy Running!
(Note: for those who don't know yet, the May 8th 5k run and 2k walk on mothers day ended up raising over $3200 for charity; way to go everyone!!!)
