THE TRAINING PLANS WILL BE PROVIDED THE WEEK BEFORE TRAINING STARTS, and we can make minor modifications for you if you have specific needs (for example: an extended family vacation, or an injury). After you sign up we'll send you an optional questionnaire to fill out if you want us to help guide you on your paces, training readiness, and suggested plan. We'll be available through email or at one of the training sessions to do check-ins with you to see how your training is progressing and how you're feeling.

PRICE DOES NOT INCLUDE ENTRY TO THE ACTUAL MARATHON OR HALF MARATHON!
