If you want to develop your running to the next level effortlessly, then this program is for you. The program is geared towards committed runners who already run recreationally and culminates with participation in the Calgary Police 1/2 Marathon April 29 2012

It will be an all inclusive journey on how to prepare and race for running longer distances based on our unique philosophy of effortless exercise. We're looking for 8-12 committed runners that want to prepare slowly and build their training base without injury.
