Distance-running workshop at HCS

The National Association of Athletics Administrations of Trinidad and Toba­go (NAAA), in conjunction with the National Gas Company (NGC), has partnered with the Oasics Athletic Club in presenting a middle, long-distance and cross-country workshop this weekend.

The workshop will be staged tomorrow and Sunday, at the Hasely Crawford Stadium (HCS) in Port of Spain, starting at 8 a.m. each day.

Canadian coach Lynn Kanuka-Willi­ams, an Olympic and World Cross-Country Championships medallist, will host the workshop, which caters to both athletes and coaches.

According to a news release from the NAAA, “The purpose of the workshop is to inspire interest and excitement for the sport of cross-country, middle- and long-distance running.

“Athletes will increase their under­standing and knowledge of the sport,

and make a solid start to their cross-country season with new ideas and

experience and good training in a beautiful, focused environ­ment. They

will feel better, faster, smarter and stronger in fitness, health and performance.”
