MORE INFO:
While those running Boston are generally considered to be “faster” runners, they represent all age groups and thus paces. Recognizing that, all efforts are made to accommodate every runner. One of the most important concerns is keeping you healthy and injury free. In that regard, should injuries develop, all necessary training plan adaptations will be made as will recommendations and referrals to the proper physical therapy and/or medical providers enabling you to get back on the training schedule.
The 22-week Boston training program, with about 40-50 runners, is separate but a part of the 26th annual Rock ‘N Roll training program (RNRMTP) which commences the first Saturday of the new year. All the benefits of that program with a couple hundred runners are included and incorporated into the Boston training. Tuesday evening track work in the lighted stadium, long run water station support, guest speakers, and all the other RNRMTP offerings will continue to be available to you post Boston.
On Sept. 1st, the SDTC Boston Training Program will commence signups for those who have been accepted into, and desire to train with us, for the April 17th, 2023, Boston Marathon. After registration for Boston training, coach Hutch will be sending you an introductory email and questionnaire that will better help him assess your current condition, goals, and possible training plan modifications to keep you healthy.
Qualifying and being accepted into Boston is an admirable accomplishment and you now have the opportunity to train specifically for that iconic course and race with 40-50 others like yourself who will help you stay focused while building friendships with other like-minded Bostonians.
The SDTC race specific training program takes advantage of our ideal winter weather and the variety of our terrain to best prepare you for the Boston course which includes the well-known “Heartbreak Hill”. Every year a significant number of the Bostonians end up running a PR on this challenging course which is a testimony to this specific training plan.
