Running is a joyful experience - once you become a runner!  With Autumn right around the corner and more pleasant weather on the horizon, NOW is the perfect time make a plan for a healthy and fun season, and JackRabbit's Beginning Running program can help you make it all happen.

This program is designed for people who have never run before or who have not run for a very long time, and want a structured introduction to help get in shape without getting injured along the way.  Our twice weekly meetings start with very gentle workouts combining walking and running, and give your body plenty of time to adapt to running over the 10 weeks of the program as we build to the goal of continuously running a 5K/3.1 mile distance.  There's no stopwatches or pressure of any kind, just positive support.  In addition you will receive personalized email coaching to guide your training in between our regular class meetings. 

If you need to miss a class for any reason, no worries, as we have an online training tool so that you can check in at any time and see what's happening in class that week, and make up the classwork at a time that's convenient for you.
