I was fortunate to recently have had the opportunity to spend some time in Ethiopia among some of the best runners in the world. Ethiopia is thought to be one of the oldest locations of human existence known to scientists and also a country that many of us associate with their running prowess. After living with some of these athletes and their coaches and being able to work with some of them one on one, I have put together a few of my thoughts on what makes these athletes so successful, and what things we can learn about treating and preventing injuries.

SoleFit is proud to announce their sponsorship of the YaYa Girls Runinng program in Ethiopia. The goal of the program is to help adolescent girls facing serious life challenges to become self-sufficient. The Yaya Village Hotel (www.yayavillage.com – owned by Joseph Kibur and Haile Gebrselassie) is the primary sponsor and home of the Yaya Girls, which hosts six to ten girls every four-month running season.

SoleFit is very proud to support the Prior Chest Nuts, a breast cancer survivor dragon boat crew from Arnprior, Ontario. The team is made up of an amzing group of women including co-owner’s Ryan and Cassandra’s mom!

SoleFit was proud to be title sponsor for the 2012 Nakkertok Cookie Race held on February 18th. It was a great day for racing and awesome to see so many young athletes (and their parents) out enjoying winter!
