Description
Come train with us! Completely free for Classic 5k registrants and Peachtree City Running Club Members!
Starting approximately nine weeks before the annual Peachtree City Classic 5k/15k the Peachtree City Running Club coaches will host a free “beginner 5k” training program for Classic 5k registrants and Peachtree City Running Club members, and you’re invited! We know there are members of our community who want to start running for health, fitness, a sense of accomplishment, or other reasons, and we’d love to offer the opportunity. We’re offering a training plan (starting August 18), once weekly in-person group coaching on Tuesdays (starting August 27), and support/help by email.
Where: Frederick Brown Amphitheatre parking lot, near the flagpole
When: In-person at 6:00 p.m. Tuesdays from late-August through Classic race week. The training plan has five or six days per week of training comprising walk, run/walk, or run sessions of distances from 1 to 4 miles gradually working towards a goal of completing the Classic 5k.
What: A training session followed by a short info session on warming-up, shoes and gear, hydration, nutrition, injuries, and other topics. The coaches will email a training program with directions on how to get started.
Note: you must register separately for the Peachtree City Classic 5k (https://ptcrc.com/2024-peachtree-city-classic-15k-5k/) or become a club member (https://ptcrc.com/join-the-club/).
