The 2019 Orange Running Festival offers a fabulous event catering for all ages and abilities – from the 2km dash for kids, to the marathon distance for the more experienced runner. The country atmosphere from the friendly local community, makes this event very inviting and super-friendly. We love it!
About the Program
Our 11-week program focuses on the Half-Marathon distance, commencing Mon 10 Dec 2018. You will receive an online periodised training program via Training Peaks, which will be updated on a weekly basis. This will enable us to provide individual plans that best suits your needs and goals. We train together as a team, as this offers encouragement, motivation, accountability for showing up and a great sense of camaraderie between fellow running buddies. Starting with building a solid foundation, we then incorporate strength, speed and endurance training into the mix. Our goal is to ensure you are at the start line in peak form, ready to achieve your personal goal.
New this year! You choose the number of weekly coached sessions you would like to attend – based on your availability. From interval sessions, tempo training, long runs, strength & conditioning, pilates, yoga and much more. As a recommendation, we encourage you to attend a minimum of 3 x coached weekly runs sessions – as this will keep you focused, injury free and progress your cardio fitness. You can then choose any additional coached sessions to complement your run training.
