FAQ & POLICIES

How many miles should I be able to run before training begins?

We recommend that as a minimum, runners should be consistently running at least 3-4 times per week, with a minimum “long run” distance of 3-6 miles once per week (either continuous run or a combination of run/walk). Our group runs are supported up to a 13:30 min/mile run/walk pace.

Will there be Pace Teams for the weekend runs?

Yes, we will have Pacers for a variety of run & run/walk paces at each location.

What is the minimum age to participate in a training program?

Athletes must be 18 years old to participate.

Can I participate with a stroller or pet?

For the safety of all participants, strollers & pets are NOT allowed at group training sessions.

Do you offer customized training plans?

Our coaching staff can help you make simple changes to the training plans, to help accommodate your lifestyle and needs. If, however, you have more unique circumstances, such as a non-traditional work/life schedule, unique training needs or just want that extra bit of personal attention and customization to help get you where you want to be, we offer a Virtual 1:1 Personal Coaching option. This monthly service is available throughout the length of the season, with no minimum commitment.

For more details, click the “PERSONAL COACHING” tab above.

What is the weather policy for cancelling group training?

We like to prepare for all types of conditions (rain, snow, wind, etc.) as you never know what it might be on race day. However, if there are conditions that could potentially put the participants or staff in danger (such as lightning, extreme heat or extreme cold), we will cancel or postpone training.
