Transitioning from Indoor to Outdoor Running


Date: February 11, 2009
Time: 6:30 to 8:00 p.m.
Location: Robert Wagner Middle School
220 East 76th Street
(between Second Avenue and Third Avenue.)


Every year at “transition time,” when runners switch from indoor to outdoor training, the number of injuries increases. Running outside and running on a treadmill are not exactly the same, and the shift from one to the other can lead to injury. Explore the causes, prevention, and treatment of these injuries.
