Interested in staying fit this winter?

Fleet Feet Winter Warriors Program

The end of summer doesn't have to mean the end of running. If you've been training all summer & fall, chances are you're in the best shape you've been in all season.

Why stop now? Train and run with the Fleet Feet Sports Winter Warriors Training Program and we'll help you get or stay in shape—especially during the "challenging" holiday season. Two locations and two programs to choose from!

We're VERY excited to offer the Winter Warriors program in Appleton AND De Pere. Both locations will offer a 5k and 15k program with the target celebration race being the Midwest Sports Events Seroogy 5k and 15k on February 11, 2012.  Training group participants will also receive a special race entry fee rate of $18 instead of the usual $27.  Group training sessions are held twice a week at the following locations:

Tuesdays & Saturdays in Appleton or Wednesdays & Saturdays in De Pere.

You get to pick the location that works the best for you! This also means that if you can't make it to your regular location, you can still join the gang at the other location! Everybody wins! Your daily training schedule is tailored to your needs and can be modified by our coaches if your needs change during the program.
