Performance Running Gym

Performance Running Gym The Twin Cities Gym for Runners and Endurance Athletes! Memberhip, Personal Training, Coaching + more Performance Running is a gym dedicated to runners.

In coming up with the idea for Performance Running, my goal was to develop a place that runners could go for strength training, running, personal training, race coaching, and recovery services. Even more important to me was to have a place that runners could gather and build a strong sense of community and camaraderie. Performance Running will offer Woodway Treadmills, an incline trainer, a Stairmaster stepmill, a Precor AMT, along with a full gym of weight lifting equipment including selectorized weight machines and free weights. We are excited to be teaming up with Trail Transformation as our race coaching partner. Our North Shore Recovery Room will feature Normatec compression recovery sleeves to help you recover faster from your workouts. Many other recovery tools will also available. There will be a comfortable living room area to just hang out with your friends. If you need to bring your kids to your workout, they can hang out in our kids area. Memberships will be available for a low monthly rate. Extended hours mean you can work out when you want to. There is more information available on our website at www.performancerungym.com.

As of the end of September the sun won't be up until 7:15am, and will set just after 6:50pm. For most runners who get in their miles before or after work, that means we need to start thinking about safety while running in the dark. 🌗

Here are a few of the PRG Coaching Team's top tips on staying visible, pikcking the right routes, and adjusting crucial habits that will keep your runs safe and enjoyable.
