GOAL RACE: Hartford Half Marathon on Saturday, October 13, 2018

If you can’t run this race or just wish to run a different race, we’ll be glad to help you rework your training calendar to meet your goal race.  

WHEN: Our program starts Saturday, July 21st at 8 a.m.

We’ll kick things off with a runner-centric workout and get-to-know you session at Fleet Feet.

Our group runs will be Saturday mornings at 8 am. Start time may be moved earlier as the weather heats up (ahhh, warmth!) and the miles increase.

**To participate in this program, you must be able to run 5 miles at a 13 minutes per mile pace by our first practice (July 21st)**

Runners are encouraged (and very welcome!) to join the free Wednesday Fun Runs at Fleet Feet, and we recommend participating in the "Run Strong" cross-training program for endurance runners offered on Tuesday evenings at CrossFit Hartford. 

And because running isn’t just about running (gasp!), there will be training in

• Proper Running Form
• Hydration
• Nutrition
• Strength Training
• Cross Training
• Speed Training

Join us at Fleet Feet and let’s Run This Town!!
