Urban Girl Squad Running Group with Athleta August 29, 2011

WHAT YOU'LL DO
If you find it challenging to stay on track with your fitness goals (or maybe just find working out alone a bit boring), welcome to the Urban Girl Squad (http://urbangirlsquad.com/site/event_display.php?id=212) Running Group! We have partnered with Athleta (http://athleta.gap.com/?), our favorite women's activewear company, to offer free coached group runs in Central Park. Athleta coaches will lead groups based on your ability: beginner, intermediate or advanced. They'll introduce you to the best practices of running and help you stay motivated. After each run, Athleta will host a reception just for us, complete with refreshments and goodie bags.

WHY WE LOVE IT
We admire Athleta's commitment to women athletes and the beauty of female strength. They create fitness clothing for women of all performance levels: from weekend warrior to competitive athlete. (And who isn't inspired by the gorgeous photos they use of real model-athletes?)

WHAT YOU'LL GET
* Coaching by Athleta during group runs in Central Park
* The opportunity to change your clothes and store your things safely in the Athleta store
* Motivation from other fitness-minded NYC women, to help you meet your goals
* Post-run reception and goodie bag at UWS Athleta store

Space is limited, so sign up today! Note: these runs are for women only and advanced sign up is required.

There will be a bag drop and place to change at the Athleta store at 216 Columbus Avenue. We will then go on to our Run Starting Point: 72nd Street, Entrance to Central Park on the West side

This event is for ages 21+
