Training and The Program
Trainings will take place in regional teams: Ft. Collins, North Metro, Central Denver, South Metro and Colorado Springs. The Rocky Mountain Chapter also offers a specialized walk team based out of the South Metro region.
TNT will provide you with a non-competitive, comprehensive training program to prepare you to complete a marathon or half marathon. The program is designed with the busy person in mind, so most weekday workouts are 45-90 minutes or less, with longer workouts reserved for the weekend.
Designed and implemented by our nationally certified run/walk coaches, the training program consists of daily workout schedules, team workouts on Saturdays, mid-week track workouts and informational clinics that cover shoe fit, gear, nutrition and hydration, speed and strength and injury prevention.
Prerequisites
There are no restrictions to join the Team In Training Run/Walk program. No prior sport experience is necessary. The only requirements are based on the course time limits of the individual events.
