What to Expect
Over the 12 weeks, you’ll train with others who share your drive and goals. You’ll work through targeted sessions like fartleks, hill work, tempo runs, longer intervals, and endurance focused workouts.

Many runners in this group are building toward Around the Bay 2026, spring half marathons, or full marathon training cycles. Workouts will support those goals while still being adaptable to your current fitness.

Your training can be gentle or challenging depending on your day. Sessions meet you where you are and help you grow from there.

You’ll leave this program feeling stronger, more confident, and more connected to your running. Whether you have a race in mind or you’re exploring your potential, we’ll help you move toward the goals that inspire you.

How it works:
You’ll meet two to three days each week for workout-based runs like intervals, speed, and hills with others who share similar goals. On your third day (our “long run” day), you’ll focus on your personal distance goal. Most runners in this group aim to finish anything from a Half Marathon to a Full Marathon, but your plan is flexible based on your needs.
 
Runs are led by certified coaches who keep things fun, personal, and supportive. Outside of class, you'll have access to an online community where you can share progress, stay encouraged, and feel connected.
