Summer Training, Fall Racing
As usual, the holiday weekend went by fast. In our case, really fast:
And now summer is here, which means that preparation for fall racing season will soon be underway.
In that spirit, we have a slew of training events coming your way, starting with the formal opening of our fall training programs on July 11. This year, we will be offering beginner and experienced training tiers for the 10-mile and half marathon programs. We will also be offering a marathon program with beginner, intermediate, and advanced tiers of training.
Registration is currently open. Train with us!

To help get your training started, DC Road Runners is providing a series of training events in the month of June that comprise a Jump-Start Program. All of these events are free, and they are open to new and experienced runners alike. These events are also open to new, seasoned, and aspiring club members alike.
Here are the main Jump-Start events:
- Global Running Day Mile Time Trials, June 3
- Run Better, Run Smarter Workshop, June 13
- Introduction to Track Running—Wednesday Night, June 17

The formal registration page for the fall training program offers an even more extensive overview of the events that we have planned throughout June as part of our regular Monday and Saturday runs. Believe me, there is lots of stuff happening!
We hope that you come out for some—or all!—of these events.
