DAVE'S 5K TRAINING • SPRING 2024

Spring means the road racing season is ramping back up, and Training the Daves Way will have you putting your best foot forward when heading out the door to your local 5K. The Daves Spring 5K Program is an 8-week training program that provides expert coaching alongside a fun and motivating community of runners, who are working toward a common goal. Training is always more enjoyable with others, and Daves Running Shop will get you on the right track to a healthy lifestyle.
THE NEWBIE
So you are new to running, looking to transition from walking, or just completing your first 5K race?  We will get you from ground-zero to the finish line with a detailed, 8-week plan that will gradually build you from walking to running at the goal race.
REMOTE TRAINING OPTION (online)
Daves Training Programs now offer an alternative to in-person training. This option is for those who may not feel comfortable running with others at this time, or runners who prefer to train on their own, or due to a hectic schedule may not be able to meet on the official training days, or runners from around the country looking for expert training resources. Daves Remote Training includes our full program online; offering everything that the in-person program does, except for the official in-person group sessions. Daves Remote Spring 5K Program is powered by the Training Tilt online platform that has a robust online experience to accommodate all of your training needs and allows for interaction with Daves Training Director and other runners in the program.
