Marathon and Half Marathon Training Camp

Register Online

 

Why, Who, How

If you’ve wanted to run a half or full marathon but did not know how to get started or to improve your experience, a half or full marathon camp is the first step in completing this demanding long distance event. Both the half marathon and full marathon camps are designed for runners of all skill levels. The goal of this camp is to get you to the starting line healthy, physically fit, and confident to meet your goal.

  • Why:

You can find many “cookie-cutter” programs for both events on-line but our camps account for the different skills, different types of runners and take into consideration training limitations due to daily life. The camps work to reduce the effects of “hitting the wall,” the feeling of having picked up a piano during the race, and most importantly, reduce training injuries.

  • Who:

-For beginners that have put a half marathon or a full marathon on their bucket list and are ready to check that off.
-For the runner who needs a hand at improving their time or reducing the aches after the race.
-For the experienced runner who wants to PR, or to qualify for Boston.

  • How:

The camps are be broken into four phases:

-Phase One – builds strong tendons, ligaments and muscles.
-Phase Two – improves endurance and running efficiency.
-Phase Three – builds the mental toughness and ability to manage the pace for the race.
-Phase Four – the hay is in the barn. It’s time to taper, rest muscles, and mentally prepare for the major effort.

The camps’ goals are to get you to the starting line healthy, physically and mentally prepared. Too many runners are ill prepared for the high demands of a marathon and half marathon or are having problems reaching the next level of performance. The twelve-week half marathon and the eighteen-week full marathon camps help you tailor your training to optimize your time and effort.
