Running, Hormones and Your Health

A quick scroll through social media shows lots of influencers talking about hormones. Hormone Balancing / Hormone Diets! Cortisol & Belly Fat! Testosterone Pellets! Estrogen Anti-Aging Cream! The information can be overwhelming and confusing. What information is accurate and what is being hyped, taken out of context or is outright false?

Join us on May 5 for an informational session on the role hormones play in overall health for women across the lifespan. We will also be discussing hormonal effects on running performance and injury risk, with the goal of separating fact from internet fiction. The discussion will focus more on female physiology and hormones, but everyone is welcome!
