Training for a Walk/Run Free Class at Rogue Valley Medical Center

Feb. 5, 2011 - PRLog -- MEDFORD, Ore.--Learn the basics of safely training for a walk or run at a free lunch and learn, “Basics of Training for a Walk/Run” at the Smullin Health Education Center on the Rogue Valley Medical Center campus on Wednesday, Feb. 9, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Getting into shape with a new walking or running program is a great idea. But doing it effectively and without injury is not easy. A couch potato can become a triathlete, but not overnight. Join exercise specialist Beth Coker, MA, BS, ES, of the Rogue Valley Medical Center Cardiac Rehabilitation Department for a healthy lunch and a vibrant presentation about smart, successful strategies for getting you into shape.

The lunch and learn is free, but registration is required and space is limited. Please call (888) 688-4920 or register online at http://www.asante.org/classes-events.

It’s a great way to get started on your preparations for the Pear Blossom Festival and the Heart and Sole 5-K Run on April 9.

The presentation is part of the “Heath and Sole Club” series presented by Asante Community Health Education. To learn more about the series, visit us online at Heart and Sole (https://www.asante.org/RVMC/about-us/news-media/2011/pr01...).
