It turns out 1 really is the loneliest number… especially when you’re training for a half marathon. Join up with other motivated runners as you embark on a 14-week program that prepares you for the Richmond Half Marathon. Our training team have an incredible corps of experienced coaches, as well as dedicated SAG support for those long weekend runs, & we even offer informational clinics. Did we mention this might be the coolest way to meet people in Richmond? Okay, so we don’t have proof, but we can guarantee you’ll end up with a few more pals than you had before.
Please Note: The Half Marathon Training Team’s format is subject to change due to current COVID-19 mandates & recommendations. As we make decisions, we will be sure to update here.
