Run Wild Missoula: Women's running camp promises great weekend for the body and soul
Run Wild Missoula Half-marathon finisher
Running is a wonderful way to feel good mentally, physically and emotionally. I recently read a passage from "Born to Run," by Christopher McDougall where one of the characters said "people don't stop running because they get old, they get old because they stop running." I recommend the book as a must read for anyone who is looking for a bit of inspiration about what your body is capable of. Did you know older women are some of the best ultradistance runners in the world? I believe it, having started a recent running program this spring. It was the best I've felt in years. So, I felt compelled to share some information about a fantastic running camp for women scheduled for Oct. 9-11 in Tarkio, Mont. It is like a camp, a peaceful restorative camp with foot soaks, nice meals and massages for runners. All running levels can participate. Check out this run-wild-missoula-running-camp-retreat-for-women flyer.
Registration is quickly approaching. If you're interested in the camp, please contact Eva Dunn-Froebig, executive director at Run Wild Missoula if you have questions. Her email: eva@runwildmissoula.org.
