Women’s trail running training club

June 24, 2023

Join Life’s 2 Short Fitness for weekly coached group runs where we will explore new trails, meet new running buddies and support and encourage each other!
Running with others is so much more fun!
This program includes 2-3 coached or social runs a week FOR ALL LEVELS!
Runs take place along the c-470 corridor between Littleton and Golden with some adventures deeper into the foothills and mountains (including hikes and snowshoe outings).
Who is this program for?
Social runners and Serious runners welcome!
Social runner= Newer or just getting back to running runners working up to a 5k or 10k distance OR runners who just want to focus on wellness and maintaining a running routine/habit with the support of the group.
Serious runner= Women who have been running regularly but seeking more structured training under the guidance of a professional coach who may be interested in training for a race with the group.
There are no pace requirements*, and the group will stay together throughout the run.
Many runs also have a Trailblazer volunteer who runs at the back to make sure no one is left behind. *Power hiking is an important part of trail running!
How does the program work?
Schedule: The program offers options for every schedule with early morning, after-work, weekend, and happy hour runs! After registering, you have access to our Google calendar with full details for 3+ drop-in options each week for all levels!

Coaching Structure:
