. Exercise & Recovery
Many drug addicts have isolated themselves and have very few healthy relationships or positive social skills
as a result of continually using drugs and/or alcohol. Many think “What am I going to do if I’m not using?” A beneficial
way of channeling nervous energy while recovering from using is through exercise. Increasing one’s physical
fitness level helps reduce stress and improve physical health. Physical fitness also helps those recovering or in recovery
become interested in new activities, releases endorphins, the body’s natural pain reliever, helps relax, redirect
energy and improve concentration. Exercise can also be used as a valuable stepping stone to meet new people as
many in recovery have to leave their old lives behind, to develop a healthy supportive network.
Event Information
Rise for Recovery: Will begin at 7am. Rise for Recovery is a non-denominational service held at sunrise for all who are interested.
Packet Pick Up: Packet pick up and race day registration will be held from 6:00 A.M. To 8:00 A.M. on September 12th, 2010.

Cancellation: The Run for Recovery will only be canceled if extreme circumstances threaten the safety of event participants i.e.
