Clinic: Army Ten Miler on October 3

Army 10 Miler

I’ll be speaking this coming Saturday, October 3, 2009 at 9:45 am at the race expo in a clinic for the Army Ten Miler. The clinics are at the DC Armory and are free and open to all. There should be ample time for Q&A’s. I plan to touch on the following topics: “exercise good for what ails you”, evolution and running, avoiding injury, getting your shoes right, moving up to 26 safely, and adjusting for injury. If there is any topic you’d like covered in the lecture portion, let me know and I’ll try to work it in. Or feel free to ask during the Q&A.

This year is the 25th anniversary of the Army 10 Miler Race. 30,000 runners are registered for it. It is known to be the largest 10 mile race in the United States and there is no 10 mile race in the world that is known to be larger than this.
