2020 Step Into Running Goes Virtual
|
|
We have met our cap and registration is now CLOSED
Congratulations! If you are reading this, then it means you are considering joining us to train for a 5k, maybe your first. We hope the information below provides answers to any questions you may have, but if not, please feel free to send us an email.
Out of an abundance of caution for the safety of participants, this year Step into Running will kick off virtually. We understand that a huge reason for the success of the Step into Running program is the group environment and getting together for the group runs. We are hopeful that we will get to a point where we will be able to meet at Peak to train together but for now the program will kick off virtually. We are still working out all the details but look forward to having you join us. Stay tuned as updates will be posted here.
Step into Running is an 12-week group training program for women and girls sponsored by the Omaha Running Club. The program targets beginners, those looking for group support or those wanting to get back into running after time away. Group support and encouragement during the training help participants increase their fitness levels and prepare for the Go Girl Run 5K on Labor Day.
