SIGNATURE TRAINING SCHEDULE - 18-WEEK SPRING & SUMMER

These classes use cardio intervals to improve metabolism and cardiovascular fitness.  Beginning runners will learn to run, moving from mostly walking to running as they progress, with the goal of completing a 5K distance at the end of the season. Experienced runners will complete 30 minutes of interval training to improve their running speed and fitness levels, with workouts designed by our National Fitness Director, Olympian Carrie Tollefson. A short strength training component, stretching, and education conclude the class. Participants are welcome to bring 5 lb. weights and a yoga mat.

Strength and Stretching for Runners

Runners should include strength and stretching exercises because they complement each other to improve performance and reduce injury risk. Strength training builds muscular endurance, enhances stability, and supports proper running form, while stretching increases flexibility, reduces muscle tightness, and aids recovery. Together, they help runners maintain balanced muscles, prevent overuse injuries, and optimize their overall fitness.

Meeting location Lakeside Lions Park, Spring Lake Park.

Bring a mat and a set of dumbbells or resistance bands.

A tempo run is an essential part of training for runners because it improves lactate threshold, enhancing the ability to sustain a faster pace for longer periods. It builds cardiovascular efficiency, mental toughness, and muscular endurance, all of which are key for better race performance. Incorporating tempo runs helps runners strike a balance between speed and stamina.

Friday 5:45-6:45am.

Tempo or Pace Run. Meet at Bunker Hills Regional Park near parking lot area by Pavilion #3.

Our weekly endurance run allows our runners to walk or jog for 30 to 45+ minutes.

SPRING AND SUMMER: SIGNATURE TRAINING

Our signature training program lets you attend classes from 1 to 5 times per week.

From walkers to runners, women will start at their own level and progress throughout the season.
