Flying Feet, coordinated by coach Dave Griffin, is a membership based year-round running program for runners seeking a supportive environment to pursue running related goals.  Flying Feet brings the training principles used by elite runners to the local running community.  Though some modification is needed for most runners, the principles of running success and enjoyment are universal, and local runners, regardless of experience or pace, can gain significant benefits by using them.  Coached workouts are held weekly in Westminster, MD and Littlestown, PA, and workouts can be done remotely for those who prefer and those who are out of the area.  Membership includes a personalized training plan, weekly video recordings shared to explain workouts and cover running related topics, coached workouts, instruction, and unlimited access to coach Dave Griffin for advice and guidance by email or at workouts.  A complete schedule of coached workouts will be provided upon initial membership and/or when requested.

The membership fee is $65 for a one-month period.  6-month and 12-month options are also available.  Memberships can be set to auto-renew at registration.  New members will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire about their running history, planned races, and goals so that an appropriate training plan can be drafted.  Once the questionnaire is received, an initial 6-week training plan will be provided.  The plan will be updated for the upcoming 6-week period upon monthly renewal.  (Family memberships are available for up to 4 members of the same family.  The membership fee is 2x the individual membership.)

Dave Griffin, the coach of Flying Feet, began running in 1976 as a high school freshman. His PRs include 15:43 for 5K, 25:43 for 5-mile, 32:11 for 10K, 1:12:24 for the half marathon, and 2:44:23 for the marathon.  Dave began coaching in 1988 and has coached the Flying Feet program since 2004.
