Mayo Clinic hosts runners at Mall of America...

Mayo Clinic has announced a free runner's event at the Mall of America in Bloomington coming up April 10, 2010.

Location: Sears Court

"The event will feature Mayo experts from the Sports Medicine Center and Jeff Galloway, Olympic runner and author," says a post by Mayo social-media guru Lee Aase.

Outfit suggestion:  You're encouraged to wear your running shoes!

Time: 12 to 3 p.m.

Running analysis begins: 12 noon

Lectures begin: 1 p.m.

Mayo Sports Medicine Center co-director Dr. Edward Laskowski says flexibility, strength training, stability training and the way you run all play a part in running injuries.  At the Mall of America event, Mayo staff will show you how to run longer, better and pain free.  

There will also be a session where physical therapists will analyze how you run on a treadmill, with suggestions of how you can change things to make your running better.
