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. Our plan will incorporate the Louisville Triple Crown of Running races (Whiskey Row 5K, Derby City 10K, Louisville 10 Mile) into our training calendar. Whether you're a seasoned half- or full-marathoner or first time participant looking to do either the Kentucky Derby Festival Marathon or Mini, these groups are designed to help meet your needs as you crush your goals!
Spring training starts on Monday, January 13, at 6:00 PM.
Training Description
Thereafter, and for the duration of the 15-week training season, this group will meet every Monday and Wednesday at 6:00 PM as well as Saturdays at 8:00 AM. This group is open to runners and walkers of all paces.
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. 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 other programs as well, which will take place later this spring.
