It’s practiced in the mountains as well as hilly\, rugged terrain and climbs are part of the sport. \nDuring the ascents\, you alternate walking and running. You sometimes use poles or push on your legs with your arms in the steeper sections.\nDuring descents\, you have to watch your footholds\, landing on the forefoot to cushion the impact. You use your arms a lot for balance. Embrace the slope\, run easy and have fun with the terrain!\nUnlike road running\, the terrain varies constantly when trail running. You run on trails\, over rocks\, mud and grass and perhaps even over snow during a white trail run. Even an urban or a city trail will provide a diverse route.\nQUESTIONS? CONCERNS?\n\nAny questions?

Making your own wrap to use yourself or to give to others is a great step to sustainable living. \nIn this workshop you will make your own beeswax wrap using beeswax and cotton fabric. You are welcome to bring 100% cotton sheets and pillowcases (we find these work best) to upcycle or we can provide fabric for you along with all other materials. We will also taste test honey produced by a beehive belonging to the VCPA Educational Garden & Compost Site and explore a real bee frame! \n*No live bees will be at the event.* \nWe are meeting at 100 Van Cortlandt Park South\, Bronx NY 10463 in Community Room 9\, which can be found on the side of the building on Gale Place. \nGet Your Tickets Now!
