Are you new to trails? Have you ever said...

"I don't go on trails because I'm too slow..."

"I don't go on trails because I don't want to go by myself..."

"I don't go on trails because I'm 'just' a hiker..."

"I don't go on trails because I don't want to get lost..."

 

Well, you don't have to say those things anymore. We are starting a beginner trail group just for you. We were all where you are now, and we remember saying all those things. So, we're here to help. We'll gather as a group every other Wednesday evening and have a fabulous time in the beautiful foothills of Boise.

 

Please bring water - we'll be out about an hour, and you'll need some hydration. 

 

We can't wait to take you on the trails with us. All ages, speeds, levels, welcome. No experience necessary. Only thing that is required is a happy attitude :-)

 

Call us at the State Street store with any questions - 208-258-7769.

What Motivates You to Move?

 

What:    "Ditch the Doubt" 

 

Where:  The PULSE State Street store - 5622 W State Street, BOISE

When:   Tuesday, April 12, 2016, 6:15 pm - 7:15 pm

 

“Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”  --Napoleon Hill

 

This month in our "What Motivates You to Move?" session, we'll talk about how to deal with self doubt. Have you ever been running a race - whether it's a 5K or a 100K - and you realize that it's harder than you thought it would be? Someone next to you jokingly says, "Why did we decide to do this?" to which you laugh and say, "It seemed like a good idea at the time." 

 

This kind of lighthearted banter can plant the seed of doubt in your mind, and you might not even realize it. The other runner goes ahead, and you're left with yourself and your doubts. 

 

This is true not only in running, but in all areas of life. We'll talk about how to block those seeds from growing in your head and learn some practices to get you back on track. 

 

So join us  - a group of like-minded people on Tuesday, April 12, at The PULSE on State Street in Boise - people who can help inspire, challenge, and encourage you to "Move" from where you are now to where you want to be. Whether it's singing, running, walking, drawing, eating healthy foods, making a career change, or just spending more time in nature - we'll share with you some ways to Get Motivated to Move.

 

Call 208-258-7769 with any questions and to let us know that you want to come and BE Motivated! (There is no cost to attend, but we'd love to know that you're coming.)
