HEATING UP THE FALL A Change is Gonna Come!
REGISTER FOR ONE OF OUR UPCOMNING RACES
We provide our clients all over support like a good bra. Hire the active lifestyle agency with a knack for growing events on a national level at 214-DFWRUNS (339-7867).
Ladies and Gentlemen, runners and walkers, Angels and Charlies. I have an important announcement. DFWRUNS is now very involved with knockers and knackers.
Kneed I explain?As you know, DFWRUNS recently added the Juggernaut
series to its client roster. This amazing new mud run series is in partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure® and helps raise awareness and funds for the fight against breast cancer. We have five events planned for them by the end of this year, and ten for 2013.
As we begin our march into September, which is National Prostate Cancer Awareness month, I see the DFWRUNS schedule filled with events that are benefitting ZERO — The End of Prostate Cancer. Our client relationship with this tremendous organization continues to grow, year in and year out. DFWRUNS now assists in the operations or marketing of six of their events — this month alone.
Like Susan G. Komen for the Cure® and their approach in the fight against breast cancer, ZERO is working on making prostate cancer a “cool” cause to support. It is very challenging as the prostate gland is not something you can see, as well, it is in a pretty uncomfortable spot to reach. You men over 40 know what I am talking about!
So as we work on the Great Prostate Cancer Challenge events over the month of September we are testing various promotions around the country, including:
• Save the Males social runs with the Blue Mile running store in Indianapolis
• A mini football combine in conjunction with Michael Johnson Performance in Arlington TX

• A celebrity appearance of NBA legend Oscar Robertson at the Great Prostate Cancer Challenge race in Cincinnati
• Partnerships with local sports teams in all markets who have generously contributed tickets and memorabilia
All these are ways we to drive runners to the events, while raising awareness and funds for ZERO’s fight to end prostate cancer. My call to you runners, joggers, and walkers of the world is to stand up for the dudes too! As always, we welcome and value your thoughts. Help us get creative and send us any tips that you think will help us grow the Great Prostate Cancer Challenge series.
One of the amazing things that Komen has been able to do, whether planned or not, has been the ability to empower, engage and energize people to support its cause. I’m sure I am not the only one who gets invited to various fundraisers for Race for the Cure and 3-Day Walk teams. What amazes me the most about these fundraisers is not only the creativity behind the events, but the sheer numbers of attendees that they gener-ate. We want to draw out that same passion in runners who are anxious to see an end to prostate cancer. Participating in the Great Prostate Cancer Challenge series helps us do just that.
If you’ve registered for a Juggernaut or Great Prostate Cancer Challenge race — thank you for your support of these worthy causes. As a token of our appreciation —‚ and just because we love giving stuff away — some of your have received some pretty sweet rewards for registering, thanks to our August DFWRUNS birthday celebration! I’d be remiss if I didn’t take a minute to say thank you to all of our fantastic partners who helped us with that.
THANK YOU to; the Dallas Morning News, FitTrac, Gordon Biersch, Wild Salsa, Sweet Tomatoes, Jack Black Skin Care Products, Skechers, Sun Stone Yoga, Dallas Fish Market, Camp Gladiator, Qdoba, Potbelly, Dallas Fine Wine & Spirits, Compete Every Day, Starbuck’s, Run On!, Jorge’s Tex Mex, Crossroads Diner and Rahr & Sons Brewing Company.
I also have to say thanks and congratulations to the 31+ winners. We hope all of you enjoy the presents. We are already working on some top-secret party plans for our 5th year! I promise you, it will be EPIC!

s I was scrolling through my playlists in preparation for my marathon training, I came across some oldies but goodies.
Otis Redding sang it like this:
I was born by the river (the Trinity?), oh myIn this little old tent, (a EZ-up 10X10 promotional tent?)Oh, and just like this riverI’ve been RUNNIN’ ever since!It’s been a long, long time comin’But I know, A change has gotta come!
Good news Otis! A change IS gonna come! The autumnal equinox occurs on September 22! What does this mean? It means a change in the weather. It will officially mark the first day of fall and for runners in the Dallas/Fort Worth area it means the start of a cool race season! While runners and walkers, cyclists, cross-fitters, volleyball players and all our other active peeps in Texas watch their training accelerate like a welcomed breeze, we at DFWRUNS are heating up the fall like the gas flame of a hot-air balloon! This month we’re polishing the cool new 2012 medals and the routes at the Plano Balloon Festival Half Marathon, 5K & 1K, and we are already scorching participation numbers for the Arbor Day 5K, 10K & Hike presented by Whole Foods.

Bandits Wanted!...that is, Birthday Bandits! This year we kicked off the DFWRUNS Birthday Bandits Club.
Each month we host an “exclusive” social run (location will vary month-to-month) to celebrate all the bandits who have birthdays that month. Asphalt and good cheers will be provided to all … AND did we mention, an EPIC gift for all the Birthday Bandits.
SIGN UP HERE
MEDIA KITLearn in detail the different methods DFWRUNS employs to put your business on the podium!
An equinox occurs only twice a year (March and September) when the Earth sits straight on its axis plac-ing the center of the Sun in alignment with the equator. Hottest Half runners who soaked through the blazing sun logo on last month’s race shirts may have felt like they were crossing the equator until they pulled into our finisher’s arena com-plete with a misting recovery zone. This month, DFWRUNS will have you refreshed at the finish line of the 3rd Annual Rahr Oktoberfest 5K also… but that’ll be easy… tap the keg!
Although fall solstice is very fascinat-ing, the most pivoting event taking place on September 22 actually has nothing to do with the way our planet spins on its axis. Instead, it will be when the Great Prostate Cancer Challenge 5K begins to turn our world into one free of prostate cancer simultaneously in the cities of Camden, NJ and in Arlington, TX through ZERO — the Project to End Prostate Cancer.
There is still time to REGISTER for these great September events so set yourself in motion and line up for a RACE!
Ooh it’s been so long, so long…But a change is a’gonna come!

A is for ActiveDFWRUNS Teaches the ABC’s of an Active Workplace through our Corporate Recess program, Lunch & Learn
is for Back-To-School and, unless you’re the teacher, the sighs of relief from your employees are softly echoing
throughout the workplace. No more paying for summer camps or daycare, no more scram-bling for babysitters and scheduling playdates, no more college-sized loads of laundry. The kids’ days are now full and busy, away from the home just as yours are.
September is the per-fect time of year to hire DFWRUNS to teach the ABC’s of creating an active lifestyle community within your office.
Just ask any kid what the best part of school is and the answer will be the same, lunch and recess! DFWRUNS has the solution. LUNCH + LEARNING = EARNING.
It is proven that work-site fitness programs have the potential to lower absenteeism and job turnover as well as increase job produc-tivity and morale. Several published reports
have shown an actual $3 - $6 ROI for every $1 invested over a two-to-five-year period.
We make it fun by first, taking the word, “work” out of the workout and secondly, by
creating fresh walking and running wellness programs for your em-ployees. Throughout our custom-tailored curricu-lum, we feed the brain not only by offering nutritional education to implement during training, for weight loss, or on a budget, but we’ll bring in experts to teach you how to incor-porate weight training, cross training, aerobic and anaerobic exercise into your workouts along with yoga and stretching.
Let’s not forget the ritual of school shop-ping! Every kid wants to fit in, but we’ll make sure you know how to fit in the correct shoe whether it be for running, walking,
cross training, yoga, or tennis. When you’re trying to find the right answer on brands to buy, you can count on your fingers or you can count

Wake up, Maggie, I think I got something to say to you!
It’s late September and I really should be back at school.
Just kidding! It’s only early September and Angel M. already completed school. She earned a degree in Business Administra-tion with a double emphasis in marketing and entrepreneurship from Loyola Marymount Univer-sity in Los Angeles, CA. But we do have something to say to you! “Welcome to the team!” We’re glad you woke up and moved to Texas after college or we may never found you through our relationships with awesome clients, Honest Tea and Muscle Milk.
Maggie is already speeding through every existing race calendar to ensure our client’s events are listed and beam-ing brightly through every possible computer screen across the USA. McCarthy will also lead many of our marketing and promotional teams with the determination and smile she sustained throughout all 13.1 sopping wet miles of her first half-marathon at White Rock last December.
Be sure to seek her out at your next race — if she’s not out on the course training heavily for her 200 mile, 24-hr relay in New Hampshire, it’s likely you can find her chugging down some Muscle Milk at one of our cool post-race parties!
Besides running, she loves live music, cooking, the New York Yankees and San Diego Chargers. Doh!

on DFWRUNS to calculate it for you. Even if all you want is to walk 10 minutes a day, or trade in a daily soda for unsweetened tea, let’s find one thing we can try for a week and let’s see what happens. We will cover some tips for beginners as well as those looking to ramp up some speed and/or distance.
Get your degree(s) after our meteorolo-gy lesson on all-weather apparel. Or review our lab report on cotton vs. technical. We have studied big box stores vs. specialty stores and have done the math and mea-sures on gadgets and technology. We won’t lecture, but instead will give employ-ees hands-on training and feet-on running/walking training programs that produce 5K, 10K or Half Marathon results. Get your company’s greatest return on investment by getting started this fall. You can’t fail.

Do You Remember, the 21st Night of September?Remember National Run@Work Day to Save on our 2012 Races!
ur COMPLIMENTS DEPARTMENT opened last month and already many of
you have given good reason to continue holding active events on your city streets. Instead of complaints dumped into the suggestion box, we’ve received great feedback to keep businesses, residents and city officials smiling about your next race. Our goal is to continue designing new and interesting courses, so we thank you for being proactive by filling out this form after every event!
COMPLIMENTING The Patriot Half – Rockwall
Plenty of water stops and cooling towels and sometimes scenic views.
It was a well-run event, and I see Rockwall Patriot Half Marathon shirts all over the DFW Metroplex now!
Form Follows Fitness 5K - Dallas
Incredible event that allowed me to see and learn more about the City of Dallas than I ever have in the 15-yrs of living in the City!

aybe your job isn’t as awesome as ours. Maybe you can’t literally run at
work. But you CAN REGISTER TO RUN while you’re AT WORK!
RUN@WORK Day is a national promotion presented by the Road Runners Club of America. The goal of RUN@WORK Day is to en-courage adults to get 30-minutes of exercise each day, in accor-dance with the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, either before work, during lunch, or im-mediately following work. RUN@WORK Day also encourages companies to help employees schedule time for physical activity.
DFWRUNS will be running all over the place during the work day on Sept. 21. Our Angels and Bosleys will be in Arlington, TX, Camden, NJ, Minneapolis and Indianapolis operating our Great Prostate Cancer Challenge and Dash for Dad races taking place the next day. But don’t worry, we’ll all fly up up UP and away back to Plano, TX in plenty of time to run the show at 2nd Annual Plano Balloon Festival Half Marathon, 5K &1K on Sept. 23 too!
Regardless of our travels, DFWRUNS still wants to be a strong force in demonstrating the importance of daily physical activity by participating in the 7th Annual RUN@WORK Day. So, we’ll just promote the concept all work-week long from 12:01 AM Monday, Sept. 17 through 11:59 PM Sunday, Sept. 23. During this time you can register for any of our remaining 2012 races for a discounted rate (adult divisions only) by using the online code: RUNATWORK.
Let DFWRUNS put your event or brand in front of the active lifestyle community. Call 214-DFWRUNS (339-7867) or email [email protected]

Doc in the Box by Holly Johnson, M.D.
Ooops, My Leg Hurts. Now What?
s marathon season beefs up, so do training schedules. With more running hours and miles logged, there is risk
for injury. Accidents do happen! Just ask the young boy I saw this past week. He was lean-ing against a towel rack; the rack broke, and he fell forward with both arms out to catch his fall. Both of his wrists hurt, so his mom brought him in to see me. We took x-rays, and the poor kid broke not one, but both wrists! He walked out of my office with a long splint on each arm and two slings wrapped around him to hold his arms up...less than one week before school (and his basketball practice) started. Big bummer!
The best way to treat any injury is of course, to prevent one. For runners, that means running on safe well-lit trails, wearing proper footwear and running gear, lathering up with sun-screen, and paying attention to what is around you, especially your running surface. On new trails and long runs, let someone else know where you are going, what path you plan to take, and about how long you will be gone. Pack water and snacks. Warm up with a five minute walk, then stretch. Strength and cross train to help prevent overuse injuries. Lastly, listen to your body! A little soreness is normal, but not pain!
Even the best prepared athlete, however, may still get a boo-boo from time to time. Here is a list of common runners’ injuries and first aid suggestions:
RUNNER’S KNEE Irritation of the undersurface of the kneecap. Take a few extra days of rest, decrease your
mileage and hills, bike or swim instead.
ITBS, ILIOTIBIAL BAND SYNDROME Pain along the outside of your knee. Decrease the amount of exer-
cise. Apply heat and stretch before you run, and apply ice after. Swim, pool-run, use an elliptical machine, strengthen hip abductors with side leg lifts or one-legged squats.
PLANTAR FASCIITIS Pain in heel or along bottom of foot. Recovery may take three months to a year!
Do calf stretches, rest, ice bottom of foot by rolling foot over a frozen water bottle, do pool-running or swimming.
ACHILLES TENDONITIS Pain and stiffness where your calf muscle attaches to your heel. This is not
an injury to run through. Take a few days off, ice every 4-6 hours, do calf stretches, pool-run, swim, or use elliptical.
SHIN SPLINTS AND STRESS FRACTURES Stress fractures require 8-16 weeks of no running; swim or
pool-run with no impact exercises! For shin splints, ice, rest, do stretches, wear an air-cast ankle splint, then slowly return to activity after several weeks of healing using the 10% rule (no more than a 10% increase per week on mileage).
MUSCLE STRAINS AND PULLS Treat with RICE (rest, ice, compression with an ace wrap, and
elevation). Try acetaminophen or ibuprofen as directed on the package if you need a pain reliever. (That is true for any of these injuries.)

SUNBURN Prevent sunburn by wearing broad spectrum (against UVA and UVB rays) sunscreen.
Cool compresses, avoid heat and humidity for a few days, hydrate, and take an NSAID such as ibuprofen or naproxen. Avoid heat exhaustion by not running in high humidity or in temps over 90 degrees. Go by the 10% rule and hydrate before, during, and after running! If you develop a headache, confusion, or extreme fatigue, go to the ER!
HYPOTHERMIA AND FROSTBITE Avoid cold-relat-ed illnesses by wearing proper gear. I remember a
quote somewhere along the way that stated that there is no bad weather, only bad clothes! If your teeth are chattering, fingers or toes are numb or turning colors, get home, get
out of your wet clothes, get in a room-temperature bath, and drink a warm beverage.
ABRASIONS AND WOUNDS Wash gently with warm soapy water. Apply an antibiotic ointment, and monitor
for signs of infection such as redness, increased warmth, more tenderness than you would expect, yucky-looking drainage, or a fever. Make sure you are up to date on your tetanus vaccination. (Generally less than ten years is acceptable, but if you have a big, dirty, open wound, or a puncture from a rusty nail, the rule is every five years instead.)
BLISTERS Don’t pop ’em! Wash with warm, soapy water, apply ointment, and band-aid. Let nature take
its course. If the blister pops, continue the same treatment and watch for signs of infection.
Generally, most injuries can be prevented by being smart and being proactive (so you don’t have to be reac-tive). You don’t have to have an injury in order to get better! Arm yourself with prevention strategies and be ready in case an accident does happen. If it does, try some of the first aid suggestions listed above. If you have any red flag symptoms such as (but not limited to) the inability to bear weight, more pain than you think you should have, extreme fatigue, or signs of infection, get help from a licensed medi-cal professional!
Please Note: The info in this article is not a substitute for medical advice from your own PCP; you should always discuss exercise plans with your own doc; Dr. Johnson and DFWRUNS are not liable for any crazy running injuries, lack of tetanus vaccination updates, or if both arms end up in slings.

hen I went to Run On! for the first time, I had
the best (and easiest) shoe buying experience I’ve ever had in my life. First off, when my dad and I walked into the store I was a little surprised to see that it was more than just running shoes- it was every-thing a runner could ever use. I met Run On! Dallas General Manager Ryan Wenos and Run On! Marketing Executive Mary Waida and they were both super nice and were very eager to answer any questions I had for them. I was going to get fitted for my first pair of real running shoes.
I sat down in the shoe area and Dawnn Gardener started measuring my foot. She measured both of my feet and had me do different things like walk around the store, stand on one foot, and squat just so she could really look at my arch. Then she explained that even though I have size seven feet, she was going to get size eight shoes for me to try on to allow for my feet to grow and swell. She then went into the back and brought back about four or five shoe boxes. She put one brand of shoe on one foot and a different brand of shoe on the other. I walked around the store with the two shoes on and picked the one that felt the most comfortable. She then put a different brand of shoe on my foot, keep-ing the one I picked the last time. I then once again walked around the store and picked the one I liked best. This went on for about 4 more rounds until I found a shoe that I truly felt fit my foot the best. She then had me try on that shoe’s mate and walk around once again. At that point I had abso-lutely fallen in love with my black, white, and purple Brooks Adrenaline running shoes.
After I had decided that these were the shoes for me, I wanted to ask a few questions which Dawnn was able to answer quite easily. I asked about how to clean them and the learned that I can just stick them in the washing machine as long as I let them air dry. I then asked how many miles should I put on my new shoes before getting new ones and was told that the answer was between 400 and 500 miles. I also learned that the most important thing about buying new running shoes is getting the proper fit which goes for
length, width, and the amount of support in the shoe. Also for running shoes you need a breathable fabric, a mesh fabric. When asked what the best sock for running is, Dawnn told me a synthetic sock is best. I thanked her for answering my questions and then went on the Run On! tour.
Jen VanCleave gave me a wonderful tour of the Run On! store. She showed me the men’s and women’s running clothes areas and made sure to point out that all the clothes were made with very breathable fabric, not cotton. She also made sure that I saw the running sock section, nutrition stand, first-aid stand, light stand, water bottle stand, dressing room, and GPS watch counter. My favorite part though, was when she took me into the back room where all the shoes are stored. There were a hundreds and hundreds of running shoes, all different brands, styles and colors- it was quite incredible!
I had an amazing experience buying my first pair of running shoes at Run On! I would definitely recommend Run On! to anyone needing a new pair of running shoes. I feel like they were able to find an excellent fit for me without any trouble at all. I am very thankful for everyone there for being so patient with me and I can’t wait to go back!
