Training Tip

Q: How do measure my "Real Age"?

A: There are many different ways to measure how healthy or fit someone is. There is an interesting web site called Real Age that helps access how old someone really is based on a variety of factors such as eating, excercising, health care, stress, genetics, etc. It may show that someone's Real Age is significantly different than their actual age. After you complete a series of questions you will be given a list of things that you can do to improve your Real Age score. Check it out!

Come join the fun at the 27th annual Columbus Roadrunners Club Winter Run on Sunday January 27, 2008 at 1:00 PM. After the race enjoy the hot soup and take a hot shower. See the Columbus Roadrunners Club website for more information.

Training Runs

Join us for a weekly training run at Highbanks Metro Park. We meet at 7:30 AM every Saturday morning. The pace and distance varies since different people are training for different events. It doesn't matter whether you're fast or slow. It doesn't matter whether you want to run 4-5 miles or are training for a marathon.

There's no reason to pay other training groups to give you a route and a water jug. Just join us for a scenic run. There are plenty of experienced marathoners and ultra-marathoners at most runs who will be happy to answer any of your questions.

For more information, details on where we meet, and a map check the link below:
