Next Step 10K/10M - 2010

Next Step 10K/10M is filled as of April 27th, 2010

Next Step 10K/10M has a planned start date (Permit requested) of April 20th at 6:30pm at River Hill HS Track

This program is for 2 groups of runners. The first group would be made of runners who have been running 3 to 5 miles on a run and would like to attempt their first 10K (6.2 miles). The second group is for experienced runners who want to improve their 10K/10M times by training in a group and who may want to join the Next Step Half/Full marathon class that begins in July.

We will be meeting once a week at the River Hill HS track on Tuesday evenings at 6:30. There will be experienced coaches with about 8 runners per coach. Runners will be in groups of similar ability and goals with a coach to help with the workouts. Training schedules for both groups will be followed with weekly coach feedback. Running logs submitted weekly is mandatory.

The 10 week session will start on April 20th with an orientation meeting covering the objectives of the training and an initial time trial of 2400m to get an understanding of each runner’s level. Last session is June 22nd with a social planned for the following week.
