About the Get Ready to Run! 5K Training Program (Fall Session)
This is a multi-week beginner training program run by the Glastonbury River Runners, not a standalone race. Sessions meet a couple of times a week at Fleet Feet Glastonbury on Hebron Avenue, with a recommended solo run built into each week as well. Coaches are certified through the Road Runners Club of America and are spread throughout the group to support every pace.
The program wraps up with entry into the Race To Fill The Pantry 5K at Riverfront Park, so there is a finish-line moment at the end. Enrollment is capped to keep the coach-to-runner ratio manageable. Health and fitness speakers come in during the session, and there is time to socialize after each run.
