No matter if you are having a PR track season, are dealing with an injury or the season is not going as you had hoped, this workshop is for you if you want to learn key strategies to become the best runner that you can be and to be a leader on your team for seasons to come.

You cannot perform your best on empty so let’s start the summer with an intention to recharge, reset, and reconnect to what your body needs most to perform your best when it matters.

For some, this workshop will be the perfect nudge to work on an area of weakness over the summer and for others it will be the permission slip that you need to pull training back in specific areas so that you are ready to perform at your very best when it counts at your A races this fall.

In this summer planning workshop, we will dive into:

1) Your unique physiology as a female bodied runner and specific training tips to help you work with your body instead of fighting against it. How you train, cross train, and recover looks different than male-bodied athletes. We will cover tips and tricks to tune in and trust your own specific training, fueling, and recovery needs.

2) Key Strength Training Exercises and Drills that Dr. Nancy often sees missing, misunderstood, or skipped in female bodied distance runners. She believes these exercises are essential in optimizing bone health and running fast.

3) Time to plan your summer training so that it fits into a summer full of the things that you love.
