RUN CLUB

We are so excited for you to be part of our newly refreshed and updated run club program! Take your run training to the next step with our guided training program that culminates with you crossing the finish line of a local race together with your fellow run club mamas. Whether your goal is to race your first 5K, 10K or half marathon or to continue your running journey, we are ready to help you reach your running goals!

Included are tips for getting started, detailed training plans for the distance you choose (running and cross-training), as well as nutrition tips for fueling during training. Each week, you’ll receive support, accountability and progress check-ins from your team of Run Club Coaches.

Our training program is geared toward runners of all levels, abilities & experiences. You decide your goal distance, commit to training with us and we'll help get you there!

So what's included in our running program?

• A training program based on your goal distance

• Saturday morning group runs starting at RIO in Gaithersburg - running with company is always more fun

• In-person goal setting workshop

• Education and information on form, goal setting, best practices and secrets from experienced runners

• Speed, agility and quickness training

• Functional exercises that will aid you in gaining strength and mobility

• Access to a private group page just for run club members, full of accountability and a community to cheer you on through training (the page is not just another Facebook group, but a private group set up just for you in the Band app)

• You’ll be paired up with another mom running the same distance. This buddy system will provide additional support and accountability.

• The support & guidance of certified run club coaches throughout your training and through the finish line of your 5K, 10K or half marathon.

*Option to Build as You Go: We are offering back to back sessions. The first session will culminate with a local 5K and 10K race. The second session will culminate with a local 5K, 10K, and half marathon race. What does this mean for you?

• Train for a 5K during the first session and progress to a 10K in the second session.

• Train for a 10K during the first session and progress to a half marathon in the second session.

• Train for a 5K or 10K during both sessions - try to improve your time!

• This strategy will help you build the strength and endurance over the course of a few months.
