Who can join the clinic? YOU!
Anyone with an interest in improving their fitness and learning more about the sport of running, is qualified to join. We offer three distinct programs which suit novice to advanced runners. The walk/jog program offers a safe and gradual introduction to running. The running program incorporates more technical aspects of running and challenges runners with anaerobic workouts. Within the running program, workouts are modified to meet everyone's ability. The Walk program is based on the Run program, only with no running!
