VIRTUAL TRAINING GROUP - Summer 2020 - Running is NOT Cancelled
Summer 2020 Virtual Training
The Running is NOT Cancelled Virtual Training Group is a low-key 2-month season of fun running over the summer. It is designed to be done on-your-own but heavily supported by online coaches and other participants via Zoom, Strava and our private Facebook group. This is a great way to keep running social during a time when we are required to run socially distanced or solo.
This program is specifically designed to challenge and motivate you over the summer. Many of you have goals to reach and we are here to work with you to help you achieve those goals. The virtual season will offer most of the same perks as the regular season including clinics, shopping days and opportunities to socialize with other runners (it will just be virtual socializing!). Join us and see how fun running alone together can be!

Suggested Activity Level Prior To Start of Training:
Participants should have been doing some exercising recently, but the program encourages walk/run intervals for those who haven’t been running a lot or are new to the sport. Experienced runners will be challenged as there will be schedules for both advanced and beginner runners. The opportunity will be there for veteran runners to do some challenging hill workouts and speed work.
You are strongly encouraged to consult with your physician and have a physical in preparation for this rigorous training program.
