Missoula Marathon and Half Marathon Training Program 2010
Starts: March 7, 2010

Get ready for the 2010 Missoula Marathon or Half Marathon with Run Wild Missoula's training program for anyone. You don't have to be a semi-professional athlete, former track star, 5% body fat or logging 30 miles a week to participate. All you have to be is someone who wants to complete the half or full Missoula Marathon on Sunday, July 11, 2010.

The class starts with distances as low as 2 miles, but how fast you run absolutely does not matter.

For beginners there is a run/walk option. Beginners who have not run a step as of the first day of class will be encouraged to set the Missoula Half Marathon as your goal. (Yes, you can do this. You have six ½ hours to complete the Half Marathon course and you have 4 ½ months to train.)

The program begins conservatively but you'll find the miles start adding up quickly, even if you're a more advanced runner. By the end of this training class you will be ready for race day.

With the Training Program participants receive:

First Day:         Sunday, March 7
Location:          Runner’s Edge, 325 No. Higgins Ave., Missoula
Time:                8 am

Group Run Days:  Wednesday & Sundays
          Wednesdays and Sundays will be your group run days.  All runs meet at Runner’s Edge.  On Wednesdays, meet at 6 pm.  On Sundays, meet at 8 am.  This can change as the program progresses, but this is where we’ll start.
