Wave Runners - Lake Run Club

With Covid restrictions lifted we are planning to roll back to our old Wave Runners format. This will allow for new runners to gradually increase their mileage and intensity over a longer duration, than our condensed program in 2022.  Our training programs are designed to have you prepared and ready to run in the May 6th Lake Run, in either the 3 mile walk, the 4.37 or 12K. 

This 9 week training program is for both first time runners and any runner who is looking to improve race performance. We have several previous participants who became group leaders over the years, and some the Lake Run group leaders have decades of running experience, frequent top age group competitors.

We have many repeat  "Wave runner"  participants who come back year after year. They enjoy the weekly group runs and all of the perks and program flexibility.  Including a T-Shirt, entry into the May Lake Run and refreshments each week.  

Some runners will "make it their own" running at a steady pace and just use the training to maintain a current level of fitness.  As the weeks go by, there will be a steady progression in intensity at your comfort level. 

While multiple leaders will be present at each session.  Leaders' roles will include: check in/out, guiding group warm-up/cool-down stretches, lead course runner and follow-up runner(s).  Leaders will be able to guide you in your running questions or concerns during warm-up or after the run. We will send out electronic education regarding a variety of running topics throughout the program.
