RUN THE FALMOUTH ROAD RACE
Join the Joints in Motion Team for this historic seven mile race. 2008 marks the 36th running of the Falmouth Road Race. General entry to this race is by lottery only – come race with us! Experience what Runner’s World Magazine called “The Best USA Road Race.” Training for the race begins in May 2008.
The Joints in Motion training program is designed to guide people of all ages and fitness levels through a comprehensive training program to complete a road race. Many Joints in Motion athletes have never run a road race before, but with our careful guidance and encouragement, nearly all of them go the distance and cross the finish line.
Our seasoned coaches offer 10-week training sessions that include detailed training schedules, weekly group runs, and ongoing support to increase endurance and improve walking and running strategy. In addition, you will have the opportunity to attend clinics to learn more about important subjects such as proper footwear, nutrition and the importance of stretching.
