My First 5K

So, yes, I ran a marathon before I ran a 5K, but that was almost five years ago now and I haven’t done another race since. So last Sunday I signed up with some of our instructors, friends, and clients to participate in the West Hartford Mitten Run.

It was so much fun. The best thing about running in a race is having the streets blocked off so that you can run through them. I find that I feel really important for the 30-minutes I am running on roads that no one can drive on–and I love it.

A 5K is a lot more fun and a lot less intense than a marathon, and I would definitely do it again. It was a blast to have people with glowing red noses and Christmas music playing. Everyone seemed happy and in the holiday spirit, although we were all pretty cold. My typical run nowadays is about 3 miles (almost a 5K) and I can say with certainty that running with 1,800 other people and music is a lot more […]

Hartford Marathon

This weekend is the annual Hartford marathon. Katy, one of our instructors (you probably know her if you’ve taken classes in South Windsor, Wethersfield, Vernon, or Plainville) is running the 1/2 marathon. The boot campers from Wethersfield are running too. Catch them in their new OWBC tanks

We are very excited for everyone running, and we wish Katy a safe run where she makes her goal time (as long as she is safe.) Am I being redundant?

If you’ve never been before, show up and cheer all the runners on. It is a huge help, and support from the sidelines really helps the runners and walkers push themselves to the end. Even if you’re not planning on running you can be a part of this great local event.
