Training Program Partner:
Nothing beats the energy of the first big race of the Spring in the Fox Cities! As always we will offer several different programs to meet everyone's different goals and ability levels. But a few things will remain the same across them all - a positive, encouraging environment full of unique opportunities, best-in-town perks, and professional run and walk training. With two group runs per week, a NEW cross-training component, an optional pub run/walk, and some of the best sponsors in town, we think we have the most PREMIUM training experience in town! Check out all of the details below. We are super excited for what the new season will bring with all of our incredible friends and participants!
OUR PROGRAM IS DONE FOR 2018. WATCH FOR DETAILS FOR OUR 2019 PROGRAM!

Training Kicks off with our Open House & Packet Pick Up on Wednesday, February 7th from 4:30PM-6:30PM.

Pacer/Mentor Team
Our programs are lead by a Head Coach (or Coaches, depending upon the size) and team of passionate Pacers that have completed the target distance AND have been members of our training programs themselves. So they get it! We typically target a 1:10 ratio of pacers to participants but with the potential for questionable weather in the Spring, a ratio of 1 Pacer to 8 Participants often better suits our needs. What does this ratio mean to you? You may not always have a Pacer by your side, but you will definitely get to know several of the Pacers and will always have them as a resource before and after your workout. We will be sure to find a few buddies at your pace too; no one is ever left behind. We are a team. A tribe!
Post Race Party!
The Wednesday after Cellcom Marathon (May 23, 2018) you are invited to our big post race celebration party, location TBD. These nights are all about celebrating you and your great accomplishment—Don't forget to wear your medals!
