I’ve found two new running clubs for those of you who are interested in joining a group run.

Steel Fitness Riverport in Bethlehem – The Running Club meets Saturdays at 9AM. Trainer and marathoner, John Stefanowicz will be leading the club and teaching participants how to run and train properly, while minimizing the risk of injury. Running will take place at Sand Island and the Lehigh University track.

Our new Walking Club meets on Mondays at 5PM. Participants will be walking at Sand Island as well as on various paths throughout Bethlehem for approximately one to two miles. The benefits of walking include managing your weight, improving your mood, lowering blood pressure and staying fit.

Come and meet new friends and enjoy some time outdoors. Both clubs are open to members and non-members. For additional information on either club, call 610-625-2717.
