***WORKSHOPS ARE COMPLETED FOR THE SEASON*** Thanks to everyone who came out to support me. To get the inside scoop for the next series, be sure to sign up for my newsletter.
GO RUN For Ya Life! is a series of workshops to help people run better, for life. We focus on training principles and methods, injury prevention, form and efficiency, skills, and more.
RUNNING WORKSHOPS IN FORT MCMURRAY
Taking it one workshop at a time, each week I will feature a different topic. All topics are interactive and although we may not always be running, we will always be moving in some way (ie: drills, strength training, mobility exercises, assessments, etc). These workshops are open to all running levels, especially beginners who may have very little knowledge about the skills of running and run training.

FUTURE RUNNING WORKSHOPS
Future workshops below are subject to change but it gives you an idea of what might be coming ahead.
- Pace Yourself! This workshop will teach you how to determine your pace zones and what pace you should be running at depending on your goals. An activity tracker that tracks your running pace is required (ie: Garmin, FitBit, Polar, Suunto, Apple Watch, etc). Key points: zone definitions, zone benefits, zone awareness, setting your personal zones (methods, frequency).
- Strengthen Your Run! Learn how to strength train FOR your run and not just aimlessly lift weights. Put your focus on key muscles and learn how core training is essential. Key points: frequency, intensity, time, and type.
- TBD – additional topics to cover in future workshops are: how to structure a workout, how to train for long-distance, how to build a training plan, running nutrition, how to use running to lose weight, running gear, injury prevention, training hills, speed training, trail vs road, technical running drills…and believe it or not, MORE!
COMPLETED WORKSHOPS
- Run With Heart! This workshop will teach you how to determine your heart rate zones and what zone you should be running in for building fitness and specific training. A heart rate tracker is required (ie: Garmin, FitBit, Polar, Suunto, Apple Watch, etc). Suitable for both non-competitive and competitive runners. Key points: zone definitions, zone benefits, zone awareness, setting your personal zones (methods, frequency). We will be running so I can show you what each zone FEELS like.
- Get Running, Again! This workshop will explain best practices on how to start running for the newbie or the runner that took time off and wants to start running again. Seems like a simple topic but surprisingly many runners start out, or start up again, soon they find themselves burned out or injured. I will teach participants a better way to get running. Key points: how to do a prep phase, build structural tolerance, incorporate active recovery, and utilize the progressive overload principle.
- Warm Up to Run! This workshop will teach you a better way to warm up and why this is KEY to the success of your running workout. Key points: breathing rhythm, mindset for success, running workout rehearsal, and neuromuscular exercises.
- Drillz for Skillz! Ever feel like you’re locked up when you are running? Like you could go faster but you can’t? Have no rhythm and flow? Hitting a training plateau? This workshop will show you a variety of running drills to increase range of motion, rhythm, flow, smoothness, cadence and more. These specific skills, when practiced, will help you become more efficient. When you are an efficient runner, you can run longer and faster with greater ease. If you are not incorporating drills for skills into your run training, and struggling to progress, then this workshop is for you.
