  • Diet Myths
  • Training for your First Run Event

The techniques demonstrated do not require a gym or fitness club membership and can be done in the comfort of your own home. All levels of fitness are welcome. A yoga/floor mat and towel is all you need to bring. Refreshments will be provided. Those who Register to run or walk the “5K for Earth” that morning will receive a early registration discount as well as a free admission pass to the Chicago Green Festival on May 22nd and 23rd at Navy Pier.
