February 2012

Scientists have suspected for a while that exercise and brain function were pretty closely related, and now new studies are showing an even more important link. The New York Times has a  story about recent papers published in the Journal of Physiology. It's pretty science-heavy stuff, but it confirms what we at Footbalance have always believed - exercising is good for your brain.

Footbalance is excited to be a partner in the Ragnar Relay events for 2012. Ragnar is a famous series of overnight relay races that combine team running skills, sleep deprivation, and a sense of humor. This year, there are fifteen race events all around the United States, each two days and one night, where teams run across 200 miles of the country’s most scenic terrain.
