Q & A With the "Rock Doc"

QUESTION:   Like a lot of runners, I've been building my mileage through the summer to get ready for late-season races. Lately, though, I've had a nagging groin pain that never seems to go away. I've stretched it like I did my last groin pull, but that doesn't seem to help. It's been nearly a month now with no improvement. What do you think is going on? R. Mitchel, Deal, NJ.
ANSWER

Arizona Distance Classic from John Bingham

The 2007 Arizona Distance Classic will benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. 2007 will mark the 3rd annual running of the Arizona Distance Classic, comprised of the Valley of Gold Half Marathon, Northwest Medical Center 5K and Splendido Senior Stroll. Situated in Oro Valley (7 miles outside of Tucson) the Arizona Distance Classic is the perfect Spring Break getaway. "I have been the national spokesperson for Team In Training(TNT) since 2000, attended over 50 TNT events and have witnessed first hand the spectacular results the fundraising has had on research, treatment, and patient services for people with blood related cancers", stated John Bingham, Founder of John Bingham Racing, "I wanted to do more to help!. I knew that I had a unique opportunity with the Arizona Distance Classic making it a non profit event benefiting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society."
