FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: What is the cost of the registration?

A: The cost of the entire training program is $30.00.  The registration includes group long runs, a full training plan, expert coaching & advice.

Q: If I am already running this distance but I am looking for a group to train with is this program right for me?

A: Yes, if you want even more of a challenge we'll fine tune the 10k distance and include education on more advanced training techniques.  Rather than building endurance you will work on strength and stamina.

Q: If I miss workouts, or I have to miss some of our weekly meeting does that mean I cannot be involved in the program?

A: Of course you can still be involved!  We would love to have every trainee at every run, but understand that life and obligations may get in the way.  Just make sure that you are completing your training runs independently so you don’t fall behind on your progress!  Also, let your coach know when you expect to miss so we don’t worry about you!
