Marathon Magic
Learn the Basics of Running at the Boston Center for Adult Education

WHAT: Oh, the Boston Marathon; a sacred day in Boston where New Englanders gather to cheer and celebrate the endurance, athleticism and dedication of the tens of thousands of runners partaking in the world-famous race. If you’re like most of us and envy the courage and physical strength of the marathoners, yet couldn’t muster up enough motivation or time to train for this year’s race, then the Boston Center for Adult Education (BCAE) has just the class for you! Beginning Saturday, March 12th, 2011, the BCAE is offering “Running for Beginners,” a 5 week crash course in running that will have you feeling fit and motivated while keeping you in-trend with New England’s favorite pastime.

They say that those who can’t do, “teach.” The BCAE says, those that can’t do, “train to.” In “Running for Beginners,” students will learn the ins and outs of running while developing a personalized training plan over the course of just 5 weeks. Held on Saturday mornings from 9:30AM to 10:45AM, the class will begin with strength-training exercises and stretches that will prepare your mind and body for the workout which will ultimately have you running for up to 30 minutes at a time. The class is designed for beginners, but is perfect for experienced runners who need to get "back on track.” Students are asked to wear suitable clothing and footwear and to bring bottled water. Class meets rain or shine.

WHEN: Begins Saturday, March 12th, 2011 from 9:30AM - 10:45AM; 5 sessions ending April 9th, 2011.

COST: $62/$52 Members *Please note: This class is a “Staff Pick” which means that students save 20% off of the original price! Old Price: $77/$65 Members.

WHERE: Boston Center for Adult Education 122 Arlington Street, Boston, MA 02116.

RSVP: Registration is necessary. Please visit www.bcae.org or call the Boston Center for Adult Education at 617-267-4430 to sign up.
