OCTOBER 2019 Running Clinics
Wednesdays at 5:30 PM & Sundays at 9:30 AM: Riverbend Park (Picnic Island)
October 20th, 23rd, 27th and 30th (Come to as many as you’d like!)
Address: 9060 W Indiantown Rd, Jupiter, FL 33478 (Once in the park, follow the signs to the River Pavilion on Picnic Island, in the back.)
Turn by Turn Directions
- After entering the park, drive straight back for approximately ⅔ of a mile (until you can’t go any further).
- Turn left over a small bridge and make an immediate right onto Picnic Island (there will be a sign pointing to the right as the loop is one-way).
- Take your first left and head straight towards the large River Pavilion (you will pass restrooms on your left). If you miss the turn just keep going as the road makes a loop.
- Turn left to park on the side of the road near the pavilion and look for a single picnic table under a small tiki hut (to the left of the River Pavilion as you face it.)
Bring your smartphone and earbuds/headphones. Meet at the picnic table under a tiki hut and relax while everyone arrives. Refreshments will be provided! After I give some instructions on how to access the workouts you’ll select the one you’d like to do.
We’ll start out as a group doing a warm-up walk for the first half mile, and then you will complete your workout independently (using your phone and headphones) on a 2- or 3-mile loop (maps and guidance will be provided). Plan on walking the final half-mile back as a cool down, then meet back at the picnic table.
I will run/walk with participants along the way and try to shoot video of each person at least once. Afterwards, I’ll send you a copy of your video along with some insights about your running form.
All participants will receive some Off to a Running Start swag, in addition to a 25%-off coupon for a monthly or yearly subscription to ORS!
