Cool Running November Style

November is the perfect time for a run, right? Well there are some fun runs coming up this month that will certainly keep you moving, smiling, and hopefully warm.

You + Fitness Room Treadmill = 5K Training

Do you wish you were a runner or do you want to get in shape for these events? We have two treadmills in the fitness room at Salem Green Apartments where you can work toward your fitness goals even when it's cold and snowy outside! If you are starting out as a new runner it is a good idea to have a plan to work up to your goal. A popular program is a training regimen call Couch to 5K which helps you prepare over the course of a number of weeks to be able to run a 5K, or 3.1 miles.

Get a guided running tour through Minneapolis. You will stop and visit local restaurants, bars and pubs along the way. Your reward at the end is… yep, you guessed it, BEER!  http://www.cityrunningtours.com
