Schedules 
Our training program is 4 months and is broken down in weekly segments.

Once you join Sacfit, we email your weekly training schedule segment directly to you. You heard right! Just open your email every Sunday evening or Monday morning and there's the whole upcoming week!

In each weekly segment, we provide specific details, comments or instructions pertinent to the specific training week, as well as other useful information.

Further, understanding that we all have futures we plan for, we also provide you the whole season schedule so you can incorporate your training program into your calendar.

Half Marathon Training Program. 
There are a couple half marathons that fit into our Winter/Spring training schedule.

1. Shamrock'n Half Marathon. An optional half marathon for intermediate and advanced walkers and runners. This year it will be held Sunday, March 14, 2010.

2. American River Parkway Half Marathon. Our target half marathon. We encourage all our team members to enter this race. It will be more than just a race. We're talkin' an EVENT! This year it will be held Saturday, May 1, 2010.

Bench Mark Races.
As part of our training program, we recommend entering races prior to the goal race as a means to gain practical experience running or walking in a race. Plus, they're fun! These races also serve as benchmarks to gauge how you are coming along with your fitness. Our team members are always pleasantly surprised to see how well they're doing! 

1. Valentine Run. Held in the Arden Park neighborhood - only a hop, skip and jump from our Saturday meeting place. It features a 4 mile and a 1.8 mile course. A great introductory race for beginning runners and walkers! This year the race will be held February 13, 2010.

2. Shamrock'n Relay. If it's too early for you to run or walk the half marathon distance, you can still join in on the fun. The Shamrock is introducing a Relay component - a shorter distance, but challenging just enough! A perfect distance for beginners and novices. and a great team event! The Relay is held concurrently with the Shamrock'n Half Marathon on March 14, 2010.
