Why the Galloway Run-Walk method?

Jeff Galloway has developed a smart way to run / walk – giving you control over each workout.  It allows you to carry on all of your life activities – even after long runs.  This motivates you to get off of the couch and run. 

Jeff's Run-Walk method improves your finish times and 

gives all runners control over fatigue.  It delivers all of the running enhancements without exhaustion or pain!

When & Where?

Our Saturday morning training runs start in the Myers Park area of Charlotte.

We meet generally around 8 am with exact start times and meeting places communicated weekly via email.  

Additional mid-week training runs are encouraged and on your own schedule! 

FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions

 How far do I need to run to be able to complete this training program?

  • If you can currently run/walk three miles, you can complete the training program.  If you are running more than that continuously, this program will help you improve with minimal risk of injury.

 How often do I need to run to be able to complete this training program?

  • Depending on your goals, total running will vary between 3 – 5 days per week.
  • All participants are encouraged to take one day a week off completely.
  • Beginners wishing to complete the distance will run 3 days per week and walk or cross train 2 days a week.
  • Novices wishing to complete the distance will run 3 days per week and cross train 2 days a week.
  • Advanced runners with a specific time goal will run 4 days per week and cross train 1 day a week.

How fast do I need to run to be able to complete this training program?   

  • Groups are divided by pace and ability.  All groups will be lead by an experienced Group Leader who will help guide your training at a pace that is appropriate for you.

 When and for how long does the group meet to run?

  • The training group meets for runs once a week.  The time it takes on the run will progressively increase through the program and depending on the mileage covered, it will vary from about 40 minutes to several hours in the later stages of the training.

 What if I cannot attend every week? What if it’s raining and cold?

  • Attendance is encouraged every week, but not mandatory. As long as the weather is not hazardous, we will meet every week. The group atmosphere will definitely help you get out there on those cold or hot, rainy mornings. HINT: It’s hard to make excuses when there are others out there waiting for you!
