Virtual Training Program Presented by New Balance - Signup

New BalanceThanks to New Balance, the Credit Union Cherry Blossom is offering a FREE virtual training program to prepare runners for the 2011 Ten Mile Run.

The Virtual Training Program Presented by New Balance is designed by Bill Rodgers and Coach Kirt West. There are three programs:

  • Beginner Program - for the non-runner and the occasional runner who runs less than twice a week
  • Intermediate Program - for any runner who has successfully completed a 5K or 10K race in the past year or any runner who consistently runs 2-3 miles a day three or four times per week in the past year
  • Advanced Program - for serious runners who average at least 20-25 miles per week and who do a weekly long run

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you signed up for a Virtual Training Program when you registered for the race, you don't need to sign up again here.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE: If you use the same email as you used to register for the race (which is fine), your email address is probably already in our system. Therefore, when you click the link below and enter your email address, you will be asked to Update your profile. An email with a link to your profile will be sent to your email address - open it and click the link, then select the program you want to sign up for.

You will be able to switch programs if you once you get started you feel you should be in a different program level. All three programs work the same way: you will receive a daily email with that day's workout and offering tips and suggestions as you prepare.

All of the programs can be strenuous, so all participants should get a doctor's approval before beginning one of these programs.

All programs begin on January 23, 2012.
