Run the Rainbow 2024 Training

Looking to set a New Year's resolution or have a goal to complete a 10K race or perhaps a Half Marathon?  Then join us in training for the 2024 Run the Rainbow for Children's Hospital on March 16th, 2024 in Jackson.  

Beginner-friendly, the program is designed to get you to push your limits and reach either the 10K or 13.1 finish line.  This 10-week program is perfect for walkers/runners looking to complete their very first 10K or half-marathon as well as for those looking to improve their PR or just have fun training with a group.  If you're interested in joining us, we suggest you should be able to complete a 5K distance (if training for the 10K) or a 10K distance (if training for the Half) and maintain a 14:00/mile pace.  

Group runs will be held Tuesdays at 6 p.m. (timed runs) and Saturdays at 7 a.m. (long runs) from our Ridgeland store.  We will start training on Tuesday, January 9th.  The first long run will start out at 3 miles for the 10K and 6 miles for the Half.  We'll gradually build distance while inserting recovery weeks to help you reach your goals.

Our distance training programs include Coaches, Pacers, a day-by-day training plan, on-course water/hydration, clinics, and more.  We will have pace groups at 8:00/mile, 8:30, 9:00 etc. up to 13:00/mile and 14:00/mile.  Whether you run, run/walk, or only walk, we encourage you to join us.

Even if you cannot maintain a 14:00/mile pace, you're welcome to join us, but we cannot guarantee we'll have someone to pace you. 

Registration is $100 for the 10-week session.  An info meeting will be held in-store at our Ridgeland location, as well as live-streamed on Facebook, on Thursday, January 4 @ 6:00 p.m.

Together we can help you reach your goals or achieve that New Year's resolution.  Sign up now and join us in January as we run to support Children's Hospital of Mississippi.

Please note registering for this training program does NOT include registration for the goal race.
