Winter Trail Training Program

Fleet Feet Carrboro and Durham are joining forces to offer a trail program to get you through the winter. We will be exploring the trails in Carolina North and other local areas during the 8 week program.

We will educate you on basic trail running concepts all while ensuring no one runs alone. We ask that everyone interested in participating in the program has a reasonable fitness base. For any questions or concerns about your eligibility - please contact nora@fleetfeetcarrboro.com. 

There will be an information meeting on November 16th at 6:30 pm at the Carrboro store. The workouts will be every Saturday morning at 8 am starting on November 18th (we've moved this up a week!) and finishing on January 13th, 2018 with the Little River Trail Run. There will be a 7K, 10 Mile and Half Marathon distance options this year!!

 

We are also teaming up with our friends at Balanced Movement Studio to bring you an 8 week online strength training program designed to compliment the training.

Each week will have a Theme demonstrated through 3 video components:

·       Exercise Routine Videos - demonstration and form cues of the week’s workout.

·       Exercise Objective and Rationale Videos - short summary video of us doing the workout and explaining how each exercise fits into desired running form.

·       Trail Running Focus for the Week - the what, how and why for the week, and how the exercises build into Trail Running skills.



There will be group discussion, question and answer, etc. available via closed Facebook group and email.  Supplementary videos answering specific questions will be added as requested or needed. Balanced Movement will also lead two week night workouts for the group during the training program, as well as partner for a pre-race course tour.

 

 

NOTE ON PACE GROUPS This program will be divided into pace groups which you are able to self select. For safety reasons, all members of the group must stay together for the duration of the run. We ask that you are respectful of which group is appropriate for your ability. Being thoughtful about group selection will prevent groups going faster or slower than their designated pace. We may also request for participants to switch groups, please be understanding in these circumstances. If you have questions or concerns about which group you should choose the coaches and mentors will be able to advise you. For more information, check out our website.
