About the NOTC Fall 10K & 5K Training
This is a multi-week training clinic built around preparing for a local 10K and 5K. Group sessions happen twice a week: one midweek evening meeting in Metairie, in front of a performing arts center near some ball fields, and one morning session in a Kenner parking lot a block off a main boulevard. Certified coaches from the Road Runners Club of America lead the runs.
Guest speakers on fitness-related topics join some of the morning sessions. Participants also receive a personal training plan covering workouts beyond the two weekly group runs. A race entry into the culminating Ole Man River event is included with registration. Locations can shift with the season, so organizers send an email ahead of any change.
