The team met yesterday to get to know each other, learn about how the program works, and brainstorm ways to make it fun while providing all the information our participants need to make their race goals a reality.

We are planning:

- Informational seminars on running form, strength training, fueling & hydration, and training smart;
- Coffee with Coaches sessions on technology and on everything you need to know for race day;
- And more!

Most immediately, we are planning a kickoff event on Thursday evening at the PR Reston store for both registered Cherry Blossom trainees and potential trainees who want to learn a little bit more about the program. I'm looking forward to meeting this year's runners and starting their Cherry Blossom journeys off on solid footing. See you Thursday!
PS - it's not too late to join us! More details and registration information are here
Sounds like a great group! Will be on the lookout for your seminars. I am really exciting to be running CB this year

DeleteWohoo for Cherry Blossom! (helps gets you through the utter miserable weather coming later this week). Wish I could run it this year.
ReplyDeleteAnd it is utter miserable weather indeed. We're going to have at least 3 feet of snow where I live by the time this is done. #snowzilla
