What to do in November and December?

Coach Amy says, “Recover, recover, recover from your fall races over the next few weeks! Respect the running gods and allow yourself to heal from microtearing, a knocked out immune system and nasty free radicals that are circulating from your race. Not taking the time to adequately recover can lead to an injury that sneaks up on you later. Active recovery is best as opposed to laying on the couch eating pie.” Dry needling and ART can be helpful for sports performance and recovery. Spots are limited. Go here to schedule an appointment: coachamypt.com.

December is the time to gradually build your volume back so you are ready in January to start Spring training. Yes, you heard that right! To help you recover and build back up, join your friends on Saturdays in November and December. Registration for Saturday group runs in Nov. and Dec. is now OPEN.

Coach Amy has only a few spots remaining for personalized training plans Spring 2019. If you are interested, please email her at amy@coachamypt.com ASAP to get on the list - first come, first serve. Registration is OPEN. We will close when full. Please note, Coach Amy needs at least 2 weeks heads up to get started on your plan.

And of course, you must NOT miss our Run Lit fun run on Nov. 30th! No registration needed, just bring your lights, your friends and some holiday spirit!

Meet at 6:30 AM in Washington Park by the Washington statue (Grand and Pershing) for an RRKC pre-race group pic. If there is not a family member available to take the pic, grab a bystander or take a group selfie!!! Here is a list of runners that we KNOW are running the race. If we’ve left anyone out, please forgive Coach Amy - it’s not personal, only a brain fart :) Just email amy@coachamypt.com if you are racing KC and not on this list. Thank you!!!
