Whether you want to get into shape, improve your current fitness level, set a personal record, or just live a healthy lifestyle, it is the goal of Get Fit Live Fit Training Programs to help you achieve your very best! Our purpose is to be the metro area’s #1 training program for both beginner and experienced walkers and runners from the 5k to the Marathon.

Walking and Running will be the core focus of Get Fit Live Fit, while program activities will include an online daily training manual, weekly training tips and a weekly educational session for all local residents participating in our customized training sessions. Health and wellness clinical topics will include multi-level training techniques, injury prevention, strength training, core conditioning, nutrition, training with a HR Monitor and more.

For those participating in one of our 3 local training sessions during the calendar year, each session will be an experience for participants. Qualified and experienced program coordinators and pace leaders will be at each practice session to provide leadership, resources and motivation.

Participants will train in a group atmosphere during each session. These programs are designed to educate and motivate, with fun and camaraderie always on the mind.

It will be easy to reach your goals with the support you'll get and the friends you'll make. There are several different programs to choose from. Within each program, there will be a number of different pace groups.
