Description

This class is lead by the Mac Dunn Run Club and designed to help runners who are able to run a 5k (3.1 miles) build capacity up to being able to complete a 10k (6.2 miles), though it is also appropriate for those who can run larger distances who are interested in a low-pressure, social running environment and those looking for structure in improving their 10k time. This course is meant to be a supplement to training during the week. We will discuss sample training plans during the first class. It is recommended that participants plan on running at least twice during the week to create sustainable training habits and reduce the risk of injury as distance increases.

Equipment needed:
  • Running shoes with good tread
  • Appropriate running clothing for the weather
  • Hydration system
  • Good socks
  • Hat or ear band
  • Gloves

  • Location will vary. You'll get a detailed syllabus before class starts. All locations within 20 minutes of Corvallis.
