STRUCTURED PERIODIZATION

WE ELIMINATE THE "GRAY ZONE" OF TRAINING WHERE RUNNERS GO TOO HARD ON EASY DAYS AND TOO EASY ON HARD DAYS. EACH TRAINING BLOCK FOCUSES ON THREE PILLARS OF PERFORMANCE:

  • BUILDING AEROBIC CAPACITY.

  • DEVELOPING THRESHOLD STRENGTH AND SPEED.

  • SHARPENING RACE-PACE PRECISION AND EXECUTING A PROPER TAPER.

COMMUNITY ACCOUNTABILITY

TRAINING ALONE MAKES IT EASY TO SKIP SESSIONS OR MISMANAGE PACES. IN OUR COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENT, YOU ARE SUPPORTED BY ARC-CERTIFIED COACHES AND PACERS WHO ENSURE EVERY WORKOUT IS EXECUTED AT THE CORRECT INTENSITY. THE COLLECTIVE ENERGY OF THE GROUP DRIVES INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE.
