You’re going to love this newsletter edition! Kick back with some fuzzy socks, a mug of eggnog - if you’re into that sort of thing - and enjoy!

As always, thanks for being here.

🎅🏼 Run, Santa, Run: Did you know the fastest marathon ran by a Santa Claus was 2 hours, 33 minutes and 23 seconds? It’s a Guinness World Record held by a gentleman from the UK.

Surely, one of us in the Runday community can beat that next year!

Q&A with Dr. Lizette Sunde from C.O.M.P.E.T.E starts today and she is a game changer! Check it out below!

If you’re anything like us, age is no longer just a number!

Aging comes with a few aches and pains, struggles dialing in your running form, and a never-ending effort to maintain some level of performance.
That’s why we’re excited to introduce Dr. Lizette Sunde!

Hey there, I'm your friendly neighborhood PT and owner of C.O.M.P.E.T.E Physical Therapy & Wellness in Moorhead.  I’m your local orthopedic specialist who juggles life as a CrossFit wannabe, running enthusiast, mom of three mini tornadoes, proud dog mom, and the go-to personal sports PT for many athletes in the Fargo/Moorhead area. 

After 16 years in traditional healthcare, I've witnessed the pitfalls of insurance limitations firsthand. That's why I've shifted to a cash-based wellness model, offering personalized goal specific treatments at lower costs. With free phone consults, no need for referrals, and the freedom to treat any area, my focus is solely on your needs, goals and well-being. 

One of the many joys of being a physical therapist in my position is getting to know and establish relationships with my clients while helping them get back to the activities they love. 

So, if you need a dose of PT magic or just want to chat about the chaos of balancing it all, I'm your gal! Let's dive into this newsletter and navigate the wild ride of fitness, family, and community fun. 

Have a question about pain, injury prevention, form, training, recovery, or performance?

Drop it below.  Your questions might be featured in an upcoming issue!

-Happy Running, Dr. Sunde-

P.S. All questions will remain anonymous.

Want to spread the good word about your business, a project you’re working on, a fun workout, or just say hi to 9,000+ friends?

Happy Holidays to you all! Stay safe, happy and healthy.
