Capital City Marathon/Half Marathon Training Group 2025

Train to run the Capital City Marathon or Half Marathon in Olympia WA.

This program is run jointly by Club Oly Road Runners, Capital City Marathon and South Sound Running. It is a training program to prepare runners for the Capital City Marathon or Half Marathon in Olympia WA. 

Training runs will take place on Saturday mornings, starting at 7:30 am at South Sound Running, Olympia. Join us on Saturday, January 11, at 8:00 am at South Sound Running for an introductory breakfast meeting, where details of the training runs and general training advice will be given out. 

The first training runs will be on Saturday, January 18 and we will start with an 7 mile run for marathon trainees and a 6 mile run for half marathon trainees. Participants will need to be able to run these distances by the start of the program.

Coaching talks will be given before the runs on the Saturdays when there are shorter runs. There will be food and drinks offered after the longer runs and we hope to have massages available after some of the longer runs.

Registration fee is $75.00 which also includes a dedicated running shirt, and a full year Club Oly membership for 2025 in addition to the training program. The fee does NOT include entry to the races at Cap City Marathon.

Shirt guarantee date:  If you register after January 4, we cannot guarantee that you will receive a shirt or that it will be the size that you choose.
