Learn to run

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Before we learn to squat, we are taught.  We also learn how to clean, press, snatch, pull up, muscle up, and on and on.  We learn the movements.  How about running?

Most of the time we hear something similar to, “Go run a 40.  Go run a mile.  Go run a 5k.”  What does that really mean?

Running is actually a skill.  Ever wonder why about 80 percent of the running community is usually “running with an injury?”  Bad form, bad equipment, no strength, and no body care.

We are teaching running as a skill as part of our Crossfit Running and Endurance.  As part of our six week class, we will be learning skills and drill to be more durable, run longer and faster, and how to properly run learning techniques based on the POSE running method.

The classes begin on Wednesday, April 7 and will be held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays.  The cost is only $60.  Really!

If you want to learn running as a skill, sign up now at the gym.  The weekday classes are at 5:30 pm, and Saturday is at 10am or on your own based on the workout.IMG_1202Hey!  one more thing.  Check us out here.

Snow day?

It’s heavy and wet, but it is definitely snowing today.  Telluride won’t be open much longer, so get out there and get some turns.  It’s spring in many places, fortunately we live high in the mountains and we get to enjoy the snow longer than most.

Today’s workout:

Shoulder press 5-5-5

Then:

AMRAP 10 minutes:

5 Deadlift 225/155

10 Jumping lunges

20 Push upsIMG_0652
