Participants in our programs benefit from our professional head coaches, experienced mentors, and managed group workouts on the Springfield area’s best paths, as well as informational clinics on nutrition, hydration, gear, injury prevention, stretching techniques, and more.

• Individualized training in a group setting.  Our proven program has served nearly ten thousand runners. Over the past thirteen years, participants have given the program an average rating of 4.8 stars (out of five) and more than 90% have completed their goal race.  An independent study supports our internal surveys.

• Safe.  We take pride in helping participants gradually and safely improve their fitness levels.  Our mission is to help team members move more comfortably and perform better at every athletic stage of their journey. 
• Our community is vast.  You won't be alone!  Our experienced mentors offer support and motivation to athletes across a wide variety of pace groups.
• Multiple weekly group workouts.  Team members are invited to participate in two coached workouts each week.
