Organiser's description

Red Coyotes 15 week Half/Full Marathon Training Program is designed to help you train for the 2024 OKC Memorial Marathon but can be used to train for any spring half or full marathon. Whether you're attempting your first or shooting for a new PR, all abilities are welcome! The 14-15, 15-16 and walking pace groups are exclusive to the Half Marathon distance due to the race time cut off. In our Red Coyote program, we think sharing the training journey with friends working to achieve a common goal is the best part and makes every run more fun! We'll help you achieve your goal safely by a gradual and strategic increase in your training mileage. We give instruction on proper hydration, nutrition, injury prevention, running form, training principles, as well as other areas to help you have a successful race. We have over 60 experienced pace group coaches who will support you and keep you motivated!
