Run fairly consistently and one of the top questions you’re sure to be asked, along with such interrogative winners as, “without stopping?” and “don’t you get tired?”, is, “What’s the hardest part about running?” Even if you have to play schedule-Tetris to fit in your daily run or you’re tough enough to survive the Barkley Marathon, I’m betting I have a good shot at being correct by guessing the true answer is “stretching” (or really anything related to warming up, cooling down, or doing anything physically beneficial). Run 50 miles? Sure! Spend 15 minutes ensuring you don’t get injured? Well…
Our excuses range from it not being that important (lame) to not really knowing what is best (slightly less lame) to just not wanting to spend the time (truth). The thing is, being able to run without injuries and without injuring yourself is a huge component of being able to run well, and at all. As a running club, SRC has a vested interest in keeping our members active, which is why we’ve teamed with Kinetic Sports Therapy in Fremont to offer free Mobility Forum and Injury Prevention Seminars to all of our members.
Kinetic offers a unique blend of Chiropractic care and Rehab Therapy. The clinic focuses on athletes of all levels, shapes and sizes and does so with cutting-edge soft tissue techniques and functional rehabilitation exercises. These seminars will cover some warm-up/cool-down techniques to ensure that you don’t injure yourself by overuse and that will actually increase your abilities as a runner. Be sure to bring any questions you have about dealing with current injuries. We had a well-attended event with Kinetic in August and hope to spread the word to more of our club members!
