Invitation to the Barefoot-Running Seminar 2024
Therefore, the Marburg Running School cordially invites you to the
12th Marburg Barefoot Running Seminar on Saturday, June 8, 2024! Participation is free of charge.
What is it about, how is the procedure?
After a general introduction, we run together an attractive route (max. 7 km) through the city and the adjacent fields. We stop in different places for impulse lectures and discussions. Experienced and successful barefoot runners will answer all the important questions about running without shoes, weigh its chances and risks and give tips for an easy entry: •
barefoot running as a congenital and species-appropriate locomotion
•
tricks for running form and workouts for newbies
•
barefoot running and external conditions (ground surfaces, weather, etc.)
•
performance-oriented barefoot running (competitions, public races)
•
... and answers to hopefully all your further questions about unshod running
The Seminar is a pure Open-Air event.
It is recommended that participants carry light backpacks to have their shoes available on the running route. A limited number of backpacks for loan will be available.
At the start and end of our route drinks and snacks will be available.
After the course, participants will receive a certificate and a copy of our barefoot running guidebook "Schuhe aus und los!", which is only available in printed form.
Changing rooms and showers are not available at the meeting point, but toilets in the stadium are usually open. To a limited extent valuables and luggage can be stored in cars at the start / finish point (without liability in case of theft).
Please note that the teaching language of this event is German.
