We've taken all the feedback and re-vamped RBC: Starting June 1 the new & improved Runner's Boot Camp. Starts Wednesday June 1 5:45 a.m. at Mt. Brook Elem. soccer field and will be each Wed (5:45 a.m.) followed by Sundays (5:00 p.m. Mt. Brook HS track) for 4 weeks. Participants wanted slightly longer sessions so we could cover everything without 'rushing' & the 'Sunday Sessions' at the track were by far the most popular. There will be an advanced and 'regular/beginner' group rotating (sprinting) back and forth between me & Micki. Each runner will 'seed' themselves from the first 'workout' that first Wednesday. It will be tough enough so that if one has difficulty with it, they know to start out with regular/beginner group (101). If one can complete it relatively well, then they'll go with advanced (102), if they are comfortable with that. We'll concentrate on form, efficiency, stride, and strength (both explosive (as in push off/toe off)) and core. We'll also work hamstrings/glutes/quads...a LOT. We will accomplish through drills and exercises, there will be almost constant movement until we slow down to work our core. It is our opinion that the stronger your butt is, the less your hamstring has to work thus reducing the likelihood of chronic hamstring injury, as well as IT Band, hip, and calf issues. Cost is $199 and can be paid via PayPal on the Run University website, check or cash. All sessions will be rain or shine (we'll worry about lightning if that possibility arises). So will you get hot, sore, tired,and sweaty? Most assuredly; wet? Probably. That's 'camp'! You will finish stronger (there'll be comparisons/measurements from Week 1 to Week 4), hopefully lighter (also a function of diet), and run more efficiently. If you don't think so and you complete 7 of the 8 sessions, you can have your money back. Past participants get 20% off ($159) and if they introduce (bring) a new participant they get Half off.
