Distance Training

Distance Training Program

Join the hundreds of runners Fleet Feet Sports has trained towards a half or full marathon. Whether its your first one or 100th, this program has helped many Rochestarians towards their long distance goals.

This Distance Training Program is for anyone who is currently a runner who has already completed a half or full marathon or is currently at the 5K/10K level and wants to jump up to the next level by completing a half or full marathon in the Spring 2008. Fleet Feet Sports is now hosting the training program for the Preferred Care Rochester Marathon and will also have a program that starts in January to help build you towards the Preferred Care Rochester Marathon as well.

A current running base as low as 20 miles per week is recommended for this program. Included is a 15—18 week training plan for a Fall Distance event of your choice or the Preferred Care Rochester Marathon. The program will also include, but not be limited to, a stretching workshop to educate on proper stretching techniques, along with a nutrition workshop to educate on fueling for an event, an entry into a prepatory event, along with group training opportunities every Saturday. The program is not limited to these activities and will be a great start to your distance quest.  Program Fee just $85.

This is our 4th season, and we couldn't be more excited to provide this great opportunity for you.

The program is very flexible, in that you can alter it towards your busy lifestyle. Its transportable, such that you do not need to be in Rochester to follow the program. The program is safe and easy to follow. All you need is a desire to do the distance and the commitment to do the workouts. The program runs twice a year, once in January, then again in May.
