2011-08-03 - Born Free!

Yo run gang,

 

Pure Michigan! We are so lucky to live in state with so much natural beauty and a park system that makes it so accessible. The Kid rock music video "Born Free" inspired a recent trip to run trails in the UP in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore Park. It's as good as it gets if you have not been north in a while it's time for a road trip! The Vasa Trail in Traverse City is another gem, join us on the trails this fall at runvasa.com.

 

I just love the glitz, glamour and nonsense of the "Red Carpet Run". Get out that old suit or little black dress and join us for one of the most fun time you will ever have dressed to the 9's. Strut you stuff on the Red Carpet on August 11th and be ready to run 5K at 7PM, the champagne will flow as you cross the  

 

finish line with that little red purse tucked under your arm. Check out redcarpetrun.com  and you won't find an excuse not to be at the dress up running event of the year.

Look good, run great,

 

Randy Step, an obsessed runner who's thinking his new black Mizuno Elixirs will be the perfect shoes to wear with my tux!

   

 

PS: The Legend!

On Saturday August 6th, join us on the shaded trails at the Legend 5 mile, 10 mile and Half Marathon. (RunLegend.com )

 

 PS: Volunteers Needed!

  

 On top of all the "thanks" and "you rock" you will get throughout the day, you also get an awesome volunteer shirt, a $30 coupon toward any Running Fit event ( includes race shirt) and a great feeling for giving back to your sport!

PS: Running Form

Running myth: Your form is natural and can't be changed.  It's not that many coaches believe this but from our experience, not many coaches address form seriously. If you want to address form seriously check out www.runningfit.com/runningform
