The FIRST Train to Run Program is geared towards training for the upcoming MountainOne Steel Rail Races. This training will start on March 8th on Saturday mornings at 8:00AM.The SECOND Train to Run Program will begin on May 10th with the focus on the BHS July 4th 5K road race. Berkshire Running Foundation coaches and professionals from Berkshire Health Systems will be offering professional support and proper training for a successful 5K experience at the county's most celebrated 5K race.
The same format applies to each training program:
Weekly group training runs hosted by BRF Ambassadors throughout the region.
These workouts offer coaching, camaraderie, and the inspiration that comes from running with others. Our group training has been helping runners achieve their goals since 2011. No matter where you are on your running journey, your training will be supported in a welcoming atmosphere by coaches and ambassadors who encourage you to pursue your goals and have fun.
If you are new to running or returning after a long break, we have a Principles of Training Group that is perfect for just getting started or easing back into it.
Chasing that PR or just want to take your training to the next level? Our coaching team can meet you where you’re at and provide challenging workouts geared toward your racing and personal fitness goals. Plus, you’ll train with other runners at your level to help you stay motivated.
Keeping safety top of mind, workout pace groups will be kept small in number.
Locations:
Each Group Training class is one hour long and held in a northern, central and southern Berkshire location; unless otherwise noted.
