Couch to 5K in 15 Weeks!
April 27, 2014 @ 12:15 pm - 1:30 pm
Beginning Sunday, January 26 and continuing for 15 weeks, Gene Wright, a certified NASM professional trainer, will conduct a Couch to 5K Program in the ELPC gym. The program is designed to include a combination of education and guided physical activity to help participants move toward a more healthy lifestyle and progressively move from the couch to participating in a 5K (3.1 mile) walk or run.
The program, PRIMA Start, was designed by Dr. Vonda Wright (Gene’s daughter) and UPMC’s Sports Medicine program. the hour-long class will be held following the 11:00 a.m. worship service. For those who are already runners and thinking about the Pittsburgh Marathon, this is an excellent cross-training opportunity. Bring your exercise clothes starting Sunday, January 26 and begin the new year with a resolution for improved health and physical exercise!
Registration and fee of $125 is required (limited number of scholarships available). For more information, please contact the Rev. Patrice Fowler-Searcy by email or call 412-441-3800 x30.
