Beginner Running

Are you having a hard time getting motivated to start running, or do you lack consistency? Don’t know where to begin? Don’t want to do it alone?

If you are nodding your head yes, then this class is for you! This is truly a beginner’s class so don’t be intimidated. 

Join Miranda, Spring, and Kelsi for a fun 7-week training program that will start with running/walking intervals and gradually work up to completing the Skeleton Skedaddle 5K and, if you’re up for the challenge, the Turkey Day 8K!

Pace doesn’t matter – all you need is the willingness to take the first step. Your goal will be to complete the 5K (3.1 miles) in the Beginner Running 101 class, and the 8K (4.96 miles) in the Beginner Running 102 class, and our goal will be to inspire you to keep on going long after this training class is finished.
