As a group, we will do our first group walk and start getting familiar with the route. We will do our timed mile on Tuesday, August 26th. The timed mile will give you a baseline for your current fitness level. We will run/walk a second timed mile at the end of the program so you can see how much you’ve improved, in just 8 short weeks! Wear appropriate clothing for exercising outdoors. Look at the forecast and plan accordingly. Remember to dress in layers and in moisture wicking fabrics, wear a hat/visor, sunscreen and most important, drink water and bring a water bottle with you. Wear proper shoes! If you need running shoes or any other gear, we can fit you after the first session or come see us before the program starts (sign up for the program and get your 10% discount at Run With It.)
This training program is designed for beginner runners or former runners who want to get back into shape. We also have a walking group for those who wish to walk a 5k. Each training run/walk will be led by a group leader who will help you develop the skills you need to successfully complete a 5K race.
If possible, start walking now to begin getting in shape and facilitating positive habits. Try walking 2 to 3 times a week for 20mins.
