START 10K is for beginning to novice runners. This program is geared for people who have previously run a 5k and would like to try a new distance or anyone who has taken some time off running and is seeking motivation and accountability!

_Both the 5K and 10K training plan will be shared with registered participants. And the 5K and 10K groups will both train at the same locations on Wednesdays and Saturdays. So if you're undecided about which distance to train for, you can switch between 5K and 10K mid-season._
