Have you ever wanted to run but not sure how to do it? Maybe you worry about your form, knee pain, or being out of breath? This year is the year you can change that and we will show you how.
Come to our 1st ever TotalBodyFit running club and get more info on our ongoing running clinic. Classes schedule for this year will be May 12, 2015 - October 28, 2015
Whether you're looking to get or stay in shape, improve your cardiovascular fitness or running is a hobby to enjoy exercising outdoors, The TotalBodyFit NYC Running Club is the place for you!
You'll learn everything from proper training methods to running techniques/tips, diet recommendations, to the best suggested running gear. Becoming a member will also help prepare you for local races in the city including 5K, 10K, half marathon and the NYC marathon. The running paths and courses will be in different locations throughout the city such as areas in Central Park, East River and along the West Side. Come join us Tuesday evenings rain or shine!
To keep it entertaining we will do a different run location monthly and the locations will be announced by email.
*TBF Running Club Charity Fundraiser*
For the rest of the month of May and all of June TotalBodyFit will donate 50% of its running club sales to Habitat for Humanity, a charity organization that helps build shelters for families in need after the Nepal earthquakes.
Another Massive Earthquake Hits Nepal
On May 12, a second massive earthquake hit Nepal only two weeks after the first earthquake that displaced 2.8 million people. To help, Habitat for Humanity is removing rubble and debris and plans to help 20,000 families with transitional and permanent shelter assistance. Your contribution to Habitat's Disaster Response Fund will help our efforts in assisting people affected by the earthquake and other disasters.
Habitat for Humanity has worked in Nepal for 18 years and has helped tens of thousands of families in need of decent housing.
