Syracuse Half Marathon Training Program

The Program

Syracuse Half Marathon Training Progam

This 11-week, coached program will get you ready to run the Syracuse Half Marathon! You will receive coaching at in-person group runs twice per week, a weekly email from your head coach with important training tips, and an online training schedule to follow for the duration of the program. Participants also receive access to our private Facebook group page with fellow runners and coaches to share tips, ask questions, and motivate one another with encouragement and funny memes.

The Goal

Without a target, you have nowhere to aim.

Our Distance Training Program is designed for runners looking to make the leap to longer distances, set a new personal record, stay in good physical shape, or cross-running a half marathon off their bucket list. Training will focus on gaining endurance, hill technique, hydration, nutrition, and pacing. Participants should be able to run at least three continuous miles prior to the start of training.

The Goal Race:

 When all else fails, a goal race with friends can motivate you to keep your training on pace.

The goal races for this program is the Syracuse Half Marathon.  Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions.
