It’s another great run session at the Ultra continuing where we left off from last week. Warming up was a bit of a problem for some as the temperature was mild. It takes a bit more time before our muscles get really warm and we perspired less, but this made running more pleasant. Like past…

New Gears for New Year

Nike Run Clinic Session 15 (Season 2?)
After the very long holidays it’s the best time start burning those unwanted calories or simply to get back into shape.
