The #mondaycrew Training Group started in 2014 as a training group for those looking to qualify or run the Boston Marathon. Our name comes from the camaraderie we've experienced in the intense Speed Workouts that are held on Monday nights as a nod to ‘Marathon Monday’. What started as a small group of 8 people has grown into a program we hold three seasons a year and has trained over 150 people. We like to focus our #mondaycrew seasons as listed below, but are more than happy to work with any distance, time or race goal:

• Winter/Spring - Marathon/Half Marathon/10 Mile Training (with emphasis on the Boston Marathon if you’re running).
• Summer - 10K/5K/Speed Training to help prepare for a fast Fall race, emphasis on Hot Weather Training.
• Fall - Marathon/Half Marathon/10K Training.

This is a coached, 10 week program designed to:

• Help you physically and mentally prepare to run a personal best in a Spring Half or Full Marathon
