100 Up, 30 Day Challenge Starts on 11/11/2011

Are you up for a challenge?

Here at NaturalRunningStore we are known for debunking running dogma. 

There was a great article recently in the New York Times about natural running.  The article had lots of very interesting insight, but perhaps the most interesting was the notion that if you focused on doing a very simple exercise, you could reap huge dividends.

The exercise is called "The 100 Up" and it is essentially a modified marching in place exercise done barefoot.  Could something this simple really help improve running performance, particulary running form?

All of the evidence was purely anecdotal, but it was enough to catch our attention.  It also sounded like a challenge.

• We have FAQs here
• We have an intro video here
• Another cool video about 30 Day Challenges

Here is the challege

Every day, for 30 days you perfrom The 100 Up. (You can see video here)

Here on the site, Facebook and Twitter we'll provide some tips and support.

At the end of 30 days, we'll see if there is any difference in your running and if this simple strategy can have an impact on your running experience.

We'll be collecting feedback, experiences, insight and just maybe shedding light on a way to help people take better control of their running experiences.

You can sign up here or join the "100 Up Challenge" Group.
