Instructions

   The YMCA of Canberra Runners Club is conducting a half marathon-training group to prepare participants for   the YMCA of Canberra Half Marathon on Sunday 27 May 2018.

   It is aimed at novices – those runners who have not completed this distance before and are attracted by the challenge or people who are coming back to distance running after a long break. We suggest that you are able to run for about 40 minutes before joining the program.    

     The program will start on Saturday 3 March 2018 at 7am at Lennox Gardens and finish with a celebratory recovery run on the Tuesday (29 May) following the big event.  Group training will take place on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings at various venues around Canberra. Members may also like to participate in the YMCA of Canberra Runners Club events as part of their training. Any additional training suggested will need to be undertaken by participants in their own time.

Experienced runners with many marathons and half marathons behind them will run/jog with participants at each group session. 

Any queries can be directed to halfmarathon.YCRC@ymca.org.au

     13 week training program;

     Entry into the YMCA of Canberra Half Marathon;

     Pre-race dinner with trainers and other training group participants;
