There are no more excuses not to start a fitness routine …
Now is the time! "Start Right Women's Fitness Program" is a 13-week
walking and running training program for women 18 years and older who wish to
start a fitness routine. Coach Carla Gregor will coach the weekly workout
sessions to encourage and train women new to running or women interested in increasing
their running distance. The program includes group workouts and speakers and covers
topics including everything from instruction in training, recommendations on shoes,
injury prevention, cross-training, safety, proper techniques, rehabilitating injuries
and more. The each training program is limited to 50 registrants in order
for the Coach Carla Gregor to spend individual one-on-one training with each woman.
Each participant is responsible for maintaining and submitting training log-sheets
to the coach on a weekly basis. This allows the coach to monitor each woman's
progression and be alert to any possible injuries. The "Start Right Women's
Fitness Program" offers constant motivation, individual one-on-one support,
and the camaraderie of your fellow female runners. On the last week of training
the coach sets up a mock 5K race for the women to run. The course is developed
with everything that would happen in a sanctioned race environment, including
pace markers, cheering crowds, water stops, an elaborate finish line and awards.
Every woman who graduates from this program does so as a self-confident runner
ready to proceed to the next level of training. CURRENT TRAINING PROGRAMS:
