Running for Health


A trainer said "Running is an amazingly satisfying experience. You can start with walking, and continue jogging. It can be race running. But at every level, it offers an opportunity for fun, for fitness, for thought, for contemplation and for achievement.

Running gives you time to observe the world around you. It gives you time to observe yourself, your body and your mind. It lets you work out in your head things that you are thinking about, stresses you have been experiencing during your day. It provides an excuse for that invaluable “alone time” that you need during your day.

And with some proper stretching, strengthening and careful attention to your body, you can run injury free and feel better. You will find that you have more energy and feel a greater sense of alertness."

Ways to participate:

Intramurals - Pumpkin run, track meet
Sport Clubs - Marathon
Informal Recreation - jogging/running tracks, treadmills.
