Running Tip of the Month!

REDUCE FRICTION!
Landing heavy, breaking on your heels, bounding on your forefoot and pushing off too hard with the toes all create friction.   Excessive pounding creates more shock to your muscles, tendons, and bones.   Land lightly and run smoothly and efficiently. 

Remember, you want to run like a Deer, not a Moose ;-)

LEAVE THE ROAD BEHIND, AND CONSERVE TRAILS WHILE HAVING FUN!
 
EIGHT ANNUAL

The Great Eastern Trail Run Series encompasses distances as wide as the views from the trails.
From 5K to 100K, you will run some of the most scenic trails on the East Coast.
The Trail Running Series includes a Canine component, where participants can either run or walk with their dog or an SPCA dog.
The Great Eastern Trail Run Series is designed to accompany runners to a discovery about themselves and their natural environment.
GETRS's mission is trail conservation through gentle use.
The series supports local organizations such as Albemarle County Parks and Recreation, the Rivanna Trails Foundation and the SPCA.
