She Swims, She Bikes, She Runs - SheROX!  

Bart Yasso will be at The Running Place on Wednesday August 27th from 4:00 pm until 6:00 pm.  He will be signing copies of his new book, My Life On The Run.  Stop by the store to meet Bart and get your copy personally signed!

Dubbed the "Mayor of Running," Bart Yasso is one of the best-known figures in the sport, but few people know why he started running competitively, how it changed his life, or how his brush with a crippling illness nearly ended his career a decade ago.  With insight and humor, My Life on the Run chronicles the heatstroke and frostbite, heartache and triumphs he's experienced while competing in more than 1,000 competitive races.

GOING FARTHER PHILLY STYLE OR…..

AFTER A GOOD RUN, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING

You’ve seen them at Broad Street, you’ve seen them at the Distance Run– and in November you will see them at the Philadelphia Marathon.  They are young, they are strong, and they are clad in lime green and royal blue. They are Students Run Philly Style –a  force to be noticed along local race courses. The only program in Philadelphia that offers marathon training to help young people succeed in life, Students Run Philly Style is teaching young Philadelphians to be healthy for life, make safe choices and do well in school.  They are experiencing first hand what it means to set goals, struggle through them, and reach higher…to go farther.
