As you are prepping for your week today, add this to the list. Sign up now for a great way to take care of yourself this Spring/Summer. I have been a part of this program for more than 10 years and can not recommend it enough. It is a Women's Beginner (really and truly) Running & Walking Program, called First Strides Vermont. Bring along your sisters, mothers, daughters, co-workers, friends.
What: Now in its 19th year, First Strides Vermont is a beginner 12-week program that will help you confidently progress from the couch to walking or running at a pace that's right for you. Open to women ages 16-116.
You will be grouped with like-paced fellow participants and led by remarkably resourceful mentors who will provide entertaining distraction and much needed inspiration as you progress through the weekly walk-run workouts.
We will compliment the workouts with a different themed resource each week, in the form of handouts, mentor presentations, guest speakers, or group conversations.
Attend at least 8 of the 12 classes and you'll earn a First Strides graduation technical T-shirt.
