APRIL CLINIC
Clinic: "The Right Way To Run"
Date/Time: Wed, Apr 23 at 6:30pm
Location: The Danskin Store, 159 Columbus Ave. (btw 66th/67th)
Dress: Running or workout clothes & shoes
Clinician: TRC Owner & Head Coach, Coach Mindy Solkin
Agenda: 30-minute indoor clinic, followed by 30-minute instructional run in Central Park
Clinic Description: Why is it when we take up a sport or start an exercise routine, we take lessons, hire personal trainers or, at least, purchase an exercise DVD? But when it comes to running, we just buy a good pair of shoes, put on something comfortable to wear, and go out the door to the local track or park. We say to ourselves, “What’s to learn? It’s just running, right? We’ve been doing it since we were kids.
Well, believe it or not, there is a right – and a wrong – way to run. Learning to run the right way decreases your chance of injury and increases the benefits of your run, so you’ll get more physical and mental benefits and you’ll add years to your running life. Coach Mindy will share the secrets of running right.
This is a FREE clinic and there is no registration.
