All are welcome to attend the Wounded Runner Medical Evaluation Evening. On this date you will receive a pre-participation medical evaluation by a sports physician. This evaluation will assist in determining not only the injury itself but the cause of the injury. You will also hear the details of the program.

Sports injuries can be debilitating and can literally stop you in your tracks! They can be painful, and if not dealt with correctly, can take much longer to heal than you might have expected. Wounded Runner is a medically supervised eight week training program directed by a certified running coach and supported by the sports medicine team from FORMA designed specifically for runners with injuries.

A Snail's Pace Running Academy and an experienced team of sports medicine professionals at FORMA have developed this specialty training program to help runners to understand the cause of their injuries, to instruct about how to recover quickly, and most importantly, how to prevent re-injuries.

If the physicians determine you are ready to participate in the Wounded Runner program, they will communicate directly with your running coach to discuss a rehabilitative training program specifically designed for you.

This eight week program is divided into three workout-meetings per week. These training plans are dynamic and will include specific exercises tailored to expedite healing at each stage of your recovery process, while simultaneously providing a focused physical conditioning program aimed to get you back to a fully active lifestyle.

The classes are held Tues/Thur at 6pm and Saturday morning at 7am at the Huntington Beach Pier. The upcoming class will begin on May 10th.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your certified running coach Michelle Montiel at 714-392-3290 or Michelle.Montiel@ASnailsPace.net
