The Louisville Distance Project is the most comprehensive training program that Louisville has to offer. By partnering with local health and fitness professionals, product vendors, skillful coaches, LDP Mentors, and local race organizers, our program provides an unparalleled training experience. Whether you're a seasoned half- or full-marathoner or someone ready to participate in these distances by looking to do either the Urban Bourbon Half Marathon, Indy Monumental, or the Louisville Marathon, these groups are designed to help meet your needs as you crush your goals!
Fall training starts on Monday, August 5, at 6:00 PM.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF THIS GROUP IS RIGHT FOR YOU? You should be comfortable running at least a 3-mile distance to begin the half marathon program, and a 6-mile distance for the full marathon program. For the duration of our training season, you will meet on Monday and Wednesday evenings at 6 pm, and Saturday mornings at 7:30 am. All other workouts are to be completed on your own. Our groups are open to runners and walkers of ALL paces. If you can run, run/walk, or walk one of those distances to start, then you can participate in this group. If you can't, don't worry! We also have 5k and 10k programs as well, which will take place later this fall.
The cost of the program is $120. PROGRAM BENEFITS INCLUDE:
