Holy Cross Episcopal Church will have a booth at the 3rd Annual “Spring Into A Healthy Summer” event in Columbus, N.C., on May 31. They will be joined by the Tryon Running Club and will be discussing the “Couch to 5K” training program, local running races, running in general, nutrition, exercise and more. Holy Cross and The Tryon Running Club put on the “Couch to 5K” training program, which is designed to get people in shape to run a 5K race who have never run before. They are several locally held running races in the fall and this is an opportunity to prepare for them. Additionally, Holy Cross members will be on hand to discuss their “Good Health Diet” class and sign people up who may want to participate. There will even be samples of coconut water and information why it is beneficial to ones health. There will be an event every half hour with the tentative schedule being:
