Improve Your Running In the Deep End: Jennifer Conroyd

Aqua jogging, also known as deep water running, is the most
running-specific alternative to land running.  By using a
flotation belt which keeps you vertical in the water, you can
mimic a land-based running workout, with no impact.  It can
effectively maintain or even build your fitness if you're injured
or if you can't handle the pounding of another day of running.


Jennifer Conroyd is a marathon runner who was stuck in the deep
end of the pool for six weeks before the Chicago Marathon. 
She had injured her calf so badly that pool running was her only
option to keep her fitness and finish the race.  Not only
did she finish Chicago, but she qualified for Boston.


Her success led her to found her company Fluid Running, which
provides a complete system to get anyone started with deep water
running.  Fluid Running offers group classes that Men’s
Journal voted one of the Best Workouts in America, and they also
have the only app-based and coached water running workout system
in the world.  Using waterproof, bluetooth headphones, you
get workouts, music, and a coach in your ears to keep you
entertained and focused on your fitness.


Coach Claire Bartholic talks with Jennifer about her personal
journey, the science behind deep water running, and how it can
not only help injured runners, but healthy runners as well. 
If you are looking for a way to break out of a plateau, but just
can’t handle more pounding on the roads, this could be the
solution for you.
