Lace Up

Bring yourself and a resistance band to CCY on Friday, February 11 at 8am. We meet in Kailua Beach parking lot (across from Buzz's) - do 30 minutes of Cardio, 30 minutes of Conditioning and 30 minutes of Yoga. If you don't have a resistance band, please email and let me know - I'll bring one for you.

Five Reasons to Lace Up and Hit the Road:
1. People who run more than 35 miles a week are 54 percent less likely to suffer age-related vision loss than those who cover 10 miles a week.
2. Running strengthens bones better than other aerobic activities, say University of Missouri researchers who compared the bone density of runners and cyclists. Sixty-three percent of the cyclists had low density in their spine or hips; only 19 percent of runners did.
3. Insomniacs fell asleep in 17 minutes on days they ran, compared to 38 minutes on days they didn't. They also slept for an extra hour on days they exercised.
4. Runners who log a weekly run of 10 miles (or more) are 39 percent less likely to use high-blood-pressure meds and 34 percent less likely to need cholesterol meds compared with those who don't go farther than three miles.
5. A review of 22 studies found that people who work out 2.5 hours a week are 19 percent less likely to die prematurely than those who don't exercise.
