Learn to run with Go!PEI

Have you always wanted to "learn to run", but felt you did not know how? The Charlottetown Parks and Recreation Department in partnership with Go!PEI and the PEI Road Runners are offering a 10 week "learn to run" program in Charlottetown.

DATE: Tuesdays, starting September 28, 2010
TIME: 6 – 7 PM
LOCATION: Victoria Park (meet at the ball field clubhouse)

This is a FREE program for all, please contact us to register.

Brief overview of program:
- This 10 week program is designed to help you build the stamina to learn to run.
- The most important part of the program is for the runner to be patient and not try and do too much too early.
- The program is based on 3 - 4 workouts per week. The group will meet once a week and you will pick 2 - 3 other days that are convenient for you to train on your own. A workout plan will be provided.
- Please dress appropriately for the weather and wear comfortable sneakers.

Learning to run properly is really important, I often see people running way to fast or hardly lifting their feet off the floor, or wearing inappropriate clothing. It is great that there are classes to teach this stuff.
