Marathon Clinic

Dennis Budd, of the Southern Utah Tri Club is putting on a Marathon Clinic. He helped me get my PR last year, so in my opinion, he has some good tips and training strategies.

Are you running the St. George Marathon?

Running for the first time?

Looking to run under four hours or slower successfully?

Informational session at the St. George Running Center Store Wednesday, June 23rd at 7:00PM.

Topics

• What is good health to run a marathon?
• How much volume is critical?
• How do I do my runs?
• How may I fuel my runs?
• And more . . .
