Have you always wanted to run or walk a 5K but didn't know how to begin training? Maybe you are nervous or don't want to do it alone? Have you had a hard time sticking to a training program in the past? If you answered "Yes" to any of the above, our iconic beginner program is perfect for you.
Often the first step is the hardest. The camaraderie of a group and experience of your coaches and mentors is great support toward healthier habits and lifestyle. This program is designed for people just starting a walking/running routine for the first time, restarting after a winter hiatus and those who want to run faster or longer. In 8 weeks, meeting twice a week, our fun, unintimidating program will help you walk, walk-run or run across the June 9th finish line at the Fitzgerald 5k Lager Run.
