SUMMARY:Register now for Fall Track Class (Tuesdays Aug 25 - Sep 29)
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW FOR FALL TRACK CLASS!   \nOffered by Lake Merritt Run Club for for 24 years and running\, Fall Track Class gives runners the opportunity to learn more about incorporating track workouts as part of their training regimen. It is one of the few programs offered locally for adults emphasizing track workouts in a structured and supportive environment with pacers. In addition to the lead instructor\, pace group leaders will accompany runners during some of the workouts depending on the particular workout\, the number of participants\, and the mix of paces in the class. \n\nClass Description:\nFall Track Class is recommended for runners who have been running for at least 6 months. The emphasis will be on how to train to run faster. We’ll work on running form and running economy. The workouts are designed to improve your ability to run faster with less effort. During each class session a brief discussion covering the elements of a training program will be presented.  Ideally\, smaller pace groups run each workout together.  We’ll explain how to use the Daniels “VDOT” tables for personal use to equip you with the resources needed to train on your own.  You can expect a pre-workout warm-up of dynamic drills and running\, post-workout exercises and stretching. (One downfall to this location\, however\, is that there are no guaranteed restrooms on site).\n\nClass Lead Instructor: \nJeanine Bourcier Holmlund is a Level 3 Certified USA Track and Field Endurance\, Level 2 Sprints Coach\, and RRCA Level 2 Coach\, as well one of the founders of LMRC competitive racing team. Jeanine is currently coaching at Chabot College and has coached high school cross country and track and field for 17 years. She also coached track 6 years for the SF Marathon training program Run365. She is the creator of the LMRC trail running programs started in 2011 and has led the track program for 16 years as well as volunteered for all the LMRC Training programs as the LMRC training coordinator.\n\n\n2026 Spring Track Class Participants
