Metro Run and Learn Discount Night



Wednesday, February 6th at 6:00 p.m. Meet at Metro Walk and Run. Pace is easy. Run 20 minutes out and back. Distance covered will depend on your pace. Run will start promptly at 6:15 p.m.

Once we are back in the warmth of Metro, Caleb Teague, runner and running shoe expert will share his wealth of knowledge about, well...running shoes! All PB members will get 25% off purchases (Garmin items excluded). Caleb will keep the store open to us for purchase after the run/clinic but if you are able, please arrive early to make your purchases before the run.

All this fun will conclude at Red Robin for yummy treats and warm drinks!

Bring a stopwatch or Garmin, your questions for Caleb, your WALLET and most importantly your expectation for FUN.

Spring 2013 Training Schedules are UP




Spring 2013 Personal Best Training Schedules are UP!

Training schedules are available to members only. Not a member? It's not too late to join us.

The password for Members Only is on the Welcome Page of the PB handbook. Can't find your race? No problem, coach Amy can modify a training schedule to fit your needs. Be sure to read Explanation of Schedules in your handbook before you choose one. If you are not running within 10% of the total weekly mileage or within 2 miles of the long run distance for the first week, Coach Amy will modify your schedule. This is crucial to avoiding injury. If you are not using a PB schedule and your long runs do not coordinate well with the long run schedule for the spring session, no worries! Coach Amy can modify your schedule so it is in better alignment.
