34th Fall Foliage Classic

We are stoked to be one of the sponsors for the 34^th Fall Foliage Classic. What better way to get back in shape and enjoy the beautiful fall weather than to go for a 5k run? All proceeds will go to benefit the rotary clubs charity organization. The run is beautiful and takes you down a country road so that you can see the beautiful fall leaves.

There is not a better way to start getting in shape than by enjoying the fall colors and supporting local charities. If you are starting training for your first 5k then make sure that you take it slow. There is nothing worse for your body than rushing into something rather than taking your time and allowing your body to slowly ease into a new routine. There are several great apps that can help you work up to doing a 5k run.

Mitchell Wachtel a podiatrist with locations in Methuen, Lowell, and Bradford, Massachusetts will be helping to sponsor the race. As part of your goody bag, you will receive a flier that will allow you to get a free copy of his book, The Foot Book. It provides great information about various conditions and will serve as a good resource for both the competitive runner and the weekend warrior. So, make sure and grab your copy.

The run will be held on October 20^th at 1:00PM. The race will be at the Proctor School in Topsfield, Massachusetts. If you are interested, registration closes October 19^th at 11:59PM. The following website http://www.rotarytbm.org/fallfol.htm#racemap has a map of the race course and there are also beautiful photos of last year’s race. Hope to see you there! If you aren't able to be there and would still like a copy of The Foot Book, just click on this link to order your free copy. Should you find yourself having any foot pain, please feel free to call us at (978) 794-8406, we would be more than happy to help take care of you.
