FAQ's

Have questions? That's normal! Let us help you.

Do I have to attend all the events? 

Nope! Come when you can. Most members cannot attend every month, but we hope you can make it because the more, the merrier.

Do I have to run with other people?

No way! Only if you want to. Sometimes running or walking with aid station support and other members you can see on the course is helpful.

Can I walk? 

Yes! You can run, run/walk or walk. Keep in mind the mile 2 aid station will be lifted at 9 am.

Are there pace groups?

There are no official pace groups, but you can send out a query on the Slack member check-in channel to see who is running your pace.

Where are the runs?

The CoachAmyPT clinic.

How far do you go?

Each route is ten miles, but you can run as little as you’d like.

Is the course marked?

Nope. You can download the map from Slack for each course to your phone or training device. Watch this VIDEO to learn how to load the course map to your Garmin device. You can also download the pdf and print it at home and bring it with you to the run.

What do you provide at an aid station?

We provide water at the 2 mile mark. If you are running over 4 miles, we recommend bringing a water bottle that you can refill at the aid station on your way back.

Can I bring my dog?

Yes, we love and welcome dogs, as long as they are people and dog friendly. Please use a leash.

Is there a coach or run leader on Saturdays?

There is no dedicated leader for our free Saturday meet-ups. Runners are responsible for their safety. Saturday group meet-ups do not include coaching.

This is my first time at a run group, and it's a little frightening.

Sometimes new members feel intimidated about joining a new group. Please don't be afraid! We’ve all had that first group experience and understand how that feels. For every loud and gregarious member in our bunch, there is a quiet and reserved one, but all are friendly and compassionate, and we want you to feel welcome.
