Have You Ever Wanted To Learn How To Run?! 
Now's Your Chance!!!
NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY! The only prerequisites needed are a sense of humor and dedication!!
We need a minimum of 7 people who can commit to meeting twice
a week!
The running group is free for all clients of Empowering
YOU!
The running group will run until first snow fall. From
there, the team will reassess whether they would like to run throughout the Winter (MUN campus has good snow clearing, or
at the Works) or if they would like to resume in the Spring.
One
of the runs will be on Sunday mornings, the other will be determined by the team (which ever day is best for all of us!) Time
will also be determined by the team.
If
this team wants to continue on, we will carry on into the Tely Ten (July 2010).
Most of the runs will be taken off- road, the reason being, it is much easier on your joints than
pavement.
The running group will start off by learning how
to run up to 5 kilometers. (5k = 3.1 miles)
Clients
can join our running group at any time.
All participants have to complete
a fitness par-q. For more information, call us
