PB's Hospital Hill Cheering Section

/















Meet at Broadway and Westport Rd. at 6:45 a.m. on Sat., June 2.
Check out last year's successful cheering section and see what local runners had to say about it. Volunteers, we need a few items to make our aid station a success. Please bring sliced oranges in plastic container (pre-slice them into wedges at home) and bags of ice and/or frozen Popsicles. We also need a few people to bring a trash can with lined bag, a rake, and dust bin. Other optional items: signs, water guns etc. Please RSVP to kcrunning@hotmail.com. So far I have confirmation from Howie, Allison, Amy S., Alice, Michelle, and Stephanie. Thanks for supporting the local running community!
 

Strengthening Classes for Runners

/
DO IT!


Running injuries are preventable! One of the best ways to avoid injury is to build long, lean muscles that improve your running biomechanics. Late spring and early summer is a great time to start a new strength training program - one that you can continue throughout the fall season as you train for your next race. Coach Amy teaches group classes on Tuesday and Sunday evenings and offers small group and individual performance training by appointment at Sport+Spine. Yoga for athletes is also available on Monday and Thursday nights at Sport and Spine. Click here for class descriptions and schedules.
