Couch to 5k & 5k to 10k Training Feb. 10 - April 15 (5k) | Feb. 10 - April 22 (10k)
Ready to run your way to a healthy you?
This 3 day/week running program will take you from the couch to the finish line of a 5k race over 10 weeks or a 10k race over 11 weeks. Register for the group training program by February 7.
How it Works:
You will train with a coach twice/week on campus and train once/week on your own. Your sessions will include intervals of walking and jogging to increase endurance while staying injury-free, then you will gradually build to jogging more as race day approaches. The training program is tailored to your goals and your experience.
Additional Training Information:
- 5k training runs through Wednesday, April 15
- 10k training runs through Wednesday, April 22
- 5k and 10k races are pre-selected
