What if I’ve never run before?
We welcome runners of all levels from beginners to veteran marathoners. Working with our coach, Don Dechow (I_Run26@yahoo.com), you will either train in a straight run format (taught to veteran runners) or learn a combination run/walk technique called the Galloway method. Either way, we will help you cross the finish line injury free.
