What are the benefits of joining these clinics?
Incorporating a running/triathlon program into your daily routine can be a healthy and rewarding lifestyle choice. There is a multitude of reasons why people choose to begin an exercise program. For some it is an outlet for stress, for others it is to lose those extra pounds. It may simply be the joy of being active in an outdoor environment. Maybe you need a goal to focus on such as finishing the Sun Run, qualifying for the Boston Marathon, or entering your first triathlon. Whatever the motivation, it is our goal to give each participant helpful advice to improve his or her running. Training with a group provides motivation, camaraderie and support to keep you running and help you meet your goals. Clinic instruction helps ensure you are running properly to prevent injury and there is always someone on hand to answer any questions you may have.Click here for our clinics brochure.
