The best way to achieve your running goals is track workouts!

Our coaches, Gary Gardner and Nate Jenkins, can help you achieve you goals, whatever they might be.  Gary is the head coach of ULowell River Hawks Cross Country and Track teams.  Nate Jenkins (6th ranked American marathoner) provides personalized training to club members.  You will also be supported by the other club runners.  You'll be amazed at what you can do with all this support and encouragement.

You can do the standard spring speed workouts.  These are geared toward improving your short and middle distance race speed.  The focus is on 10K to Half Marathon distances with enough speed to rip a great 5K.

If you have special goals - say a marathon or half-marathon, Nate can help you create a more personalized workout plan.  Click here to sign up for that option

As mentioned above, formal track starts at 6:00PM.  Before the formal start most of the participants go for a warm-up run of about 2 miles.  This usually starts at about 5:30.  Unless your late - there is always someone to run with at your warm-up pace.  Most people are done by about 7:30, but there is no pressure to finish - take as much time as you need.

Track is free to all GLRR members in good standing.
