2:00, 2:15, 1:50, 1:45, 1:40, 1:30 and a program that
will get you from the start to the finish line (great
for first timers).
For the Marathon distances we have the beginner program
as well as programs that target these finishing times….5Hours,
4:45, 4:30, 4:15, 4:00, 3:45, 3:30, 3:10, 3:00, and
sub 3 hour targets.
"Running is not, as it so often seems, only
about what you did in your last race or about how
many miles you ran last week. It is, in a much more
important way, about community, about appreciating
all the miles run by other runners, too." ~~Richard
O'Brien~~
FITNESS WALKING
If you can’t run, would prefer to walk or are
a little bit intimidated by the running scene, this
is the clinic for you. Choose from the beginner program
to get you started on your walking journey or choose
the advanced program to challenge yourself.
Walking Fitness – Saturday January 14th 10am

LEARN TO RUN,
5K RUN
These clinics are designed with the beginner in mind
they involve a gentle progression of run/walk intervals,
gradually increasing throughout the ten-week session.
Learn To Run/5K – Monday January 9th at 6pm–
Instructor - Deb Gauthier, Pacer – Christine
Adornato
Hi! I'm Deb and we will be spending the next ten
weeks together! I discovered the joy of running at
nine years of age with my father and joined the school
cross country running team. I took up running again
in my thirties as a way to combat the daily stresses
of life and stay healthy.
During my forties I decided I wanted to complete
a marathon and joined the Running Room to learn the
proper way to go about it. I enjoyed it so much that
here I am today hoping to share that joy and motivation
with you!
Looking forward to meeting you!
Deb
10K RUN
This clinic is ideal for those who already regularly
run 4-6km for 3-4 runs a week. As this clinic includes
both hill and speed training it is recommended that
participants have a solid base of activity.
10K – Thursday January 12th at 6pm– Instructor
– Alice Barnett
I have always been an active person and I became
an avid runner about 7 years ago. I really enjoy participating
in community organized races such as the Santa Shuffle,
Run for the Cure and the run for diabetes. I have
been working on increasing the distance that I run.
I completed the Scotiabank 1/2 marathon in October,
2011 and I'm currently training for the 30K around
the Bay in March, 2012. My ultimate goal in running
is to complete the Paris Marathon in 2015. I feel
like I'm well on my way. It is really motivating for
me to help others reach running goals. What also keeps
me heading out is running for a cause such as breast
cancer, diabetes or children's programs. This will
be the first clinic that I am running, so I hope that
you get as much out of it as I do! Alice :)
½ MARATHON
This is ideal for those who have a base of 6-10km
for 4-6 runs per week. As with the half, the weekday
runs are shorter and the Sunday runs are LSD (long
slow distance). Sundays begin with 3K and build to
21k with taper weeks along the way as you build your
distance.
½ marathon and marathon – Tuesday January

A Little Piece of Me!
I have participated in a number of different events.
Including over 12 half marathons, 3 full marathons
and 2 half Ironman’s and 12 shorter triathlons.
A few of my most memorable races are Dublin marathon
in 2006 (Team Diabetes), Victoria BC marathon, Las
Vegas Marathon, Muskoka half Ironman and many more.
I have also participated/paced or instructed every
length of clinic from the Running Room including mom
and baby stroller clinic, 5km, 10km, ½ marathon
and full marathon. With each clinic I gain experience
and knowledge and learn something new.
I want all of you to know that with each person comes
a different beauty and a uniqueness. A beauty that
is not uniform and that deserves to be highlighted
with attention and encouragement which I hope to provide
all my runners and walkers with.
