Sage Rountree: Yoga for Athletes, Training for Running and Triathlon | Running and Yoga Retreat

Yoga and Running Retreat
Friday evening, October 21–Sunday lunch, October 23, 2011
ZAP Fitness
Blowing Rock, NC

You’re sure to come away both relaxed and invigorated after this wonderful fall weekend in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina. ZAP is a training center with space for a retreat of ten students. (While they support a team of postcollegiate elite runners, YOU needn't be elite to come!) Everything is taken care of. You will:

  • sleep in the center’s clean, comfortable dormitory (private rooms for one or two with Jack-and-Jill baths)
  • run the smooth trails in Moses Cone Memorial Park
  • receive a custom gait analysis
  • discuss ways to structure your season and learn what workouts will best suit your needs
  • do yoga outside on the grass or ZAP’s “yoga platform” by the creek, as well as inside on a comfortable rubber floor
  • eat home-cooked, healthy food and savor a little wine
  • relax in the hot tub or take a cool plunge in the swimming hole
  • enjoy each other’s company as well as some solitude (there is no TV and very little cell coverage, but fear not: you’ll have wi-fi)
  • luxuriate in the feeling of finishing a run or a yoga practice knowing there’s nowhere else you need to be!
You’ll enjoy the retreat more if you can run three or four miles (at any pace) and if you are intrigued, not intimidated, by the idea of a three-hour yoga play session.
