Club Oly Road Runners sponsors three training programs throughout the year: a 5-mile training program for the Capital City 5 mile run in May and a fall marathon/half marathon training group.
In 2024 we will continue to organize and lead the marathon and half marathon training groups for Capital City races.
Reach your goals and meet new running friends by joining one of our programs!
This program, led by certified running coaches and Club Oly members, is a 14 week program designed for new runners, returning runners and those who have no running experience who want to make a positive change in their lives.
Using the walk/run method with as little as 20 to 30 minutes of walking and jogging, just 3 times a week, we can help just about anyone reach their goal of running a five mile race. We invite runners and walkers of all abilities to join us!
Training Schedule: we meet during the week on Mondays and Wednesdays at 6:00 pm at Marathon Park and on Saturdays at South Sound Running at 8:30 am. The training group will begin in early February this year.
Registration fee is $50.00 which also includes a running shirt and full year Club Oly membership in addition to the 14 week training program. The fee does not include entry to the race at Cap City Marathon.
Each summer, Club Oly offers a training group for runners preparing for fall marathons or half marathons. Led by an experienced coaching staff, the training group runs from June until October (when many fall distance races are scheduled.) The group meets outside South Sound Running on Saturday mornings at 7:30 am (during very hot weather, we move the start time to 7:00 am). The length of the runs gradually increase over the course of the training group. Water stations are organized for the longer runs and we have guest speakers to offer advice on preparing for your marathon or half marathon. The fall trainings are included in your annual membership.
Club Oly is partnering with the Capital City Marathon this year and organizing and leading the training group in preparation for the marathon and half marathon distances.
The traing group will start in January. The introductory breakfast will be Saturday January 14 at 7:30 am at South Sound Running.
First Run: Saturday Jan 21, 7:30 at South Sound Running.
The training group will include membership in Club Oly for 2024.
