The Program
It's time to hit the trails with Fleet Feet Syracuse! This is a 9-week coached program that will prepare you for a late summer trail race, or teach you the basics of trail running. You will receive instruction at all group runs, a weekly email from the coach with important training tips, and a schedule to follow for the duration of the program. Training will focus on running moderate to technical terrain, hill form and powerhiking, hydration, nutrition, and pacing. 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.
This program is for runners looking to take to the trails, whether it's their first time or their homefield. Some runners may be chasing new distance personal bests, trying for a PR, or looking to stay in shape while enjoying nature. The training program can prepare you for goal races such as the Hedgehog Hustle and GLER (Green Lakes Endurance Run) but we welcome runners that want to learn to run trails and not race. Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions.
