Marathon training offered by CRH
The annual training program provides education and training for participants to run a half marathon. The two races targeted are Derby Festival Marathon held in Louisville on April 25th and the One American 500 Festival Mini-Marathon held in Indianapolis on May 2nd.
Beginning and intermediate runners, as well as walkers, will be introduced to various training methods and will go on a weekly training walk/run. Classes will include presentations on nutrition, injury recognition and prevention and mental preparation.
These spring half-marathons provide a great training base for anyone considering the Mill Race Marathon or half-marathon in the fall.
The program's first class meets at 7:30 a.m. Jan. 24 at Donner Center. Subsequent class meetings will be held at Columbus Regional Hospital's Kroot Auditorium. The cost is $55 for the 14-week program. For more information, contact Shayla Holtkamp at [email protected].
