Cry for Justice

by Matt Fletcher on August 4, 2010

IBJI will be holding a fundraiser to benefit Cry for Justice during the lead up to this year’s Hot Chocolate 15k/5k race which is being held on November 6th, 2010.

Who is Cry for Justice?

Cry for Justice is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Knoxville, TN that is designed to create a place of love, safety and healing for children coming out of the sex traffic trade. They do so by providing physical and emotional healing as well as a place for these children to call home. For many, it may be the first “home” they have ever had. Cry for Justice works to raise awareness of this continually growing issue and educate people on how they can help in their local communities and help raise awareness in their circle of influence.

Want to help?

Running Clinic – September 11, 2010

by Jenn Robbins on July 1, 2010

IBJI is hosting a running clinic on Saturday September 11, 2010 from 8:00am to 2:00pm. The cost per session is $30.00. This will include a gait analysis, dynamic strength and flexibility testing, foot type assessment, and shoewear guidelines. Note: As part of the evaluation, participants will be asked to run barefoot.

The clinic will take place at our IBJI Lakeview location:

2860 N. Broadway Ave, Suite 202B
Chicago, IL 60657

Parking is available for $4.00 in the parking lot on the upper level of the building.

Registration is on a first come, first serve basis. If you are interested in attending, please email Jenn at runningclinic@ibji.com. Once a timeslot is confirmed you will be directed to a PayPal link for payment. A new runner will begin every ten minutes and cycle through the stations with discussion throughout by skilled Physical Therapists. Runners will rotate through 5 stations, taking approximately 30-45 minutes total. Be prepared to start at station one at the timeslot given to you.

Please come prepared in comfortable clothing and your current running shoes! Please also fill out an intake form and bring it with you. We will have these available when you sign in for your scheduled time as well.

Our goals for the clinic are to guide you to an optimal running style by minimizing strain on your body and improving your strength. On clinic day, there will be five stations set up for you to rotate through. At each station, there will be a physical therapist evaluating and discussing a different component of your running technique.

Happy running!
