Why train with us? Working with our training groups is one of our absolute favorite parts of the job. These groups allow us to get involved in our community and help motivate and support runners just like us! We offer a variety of training programs throughout the year to cater to a wealth of starting points and ability levels, and we feel confident that we have the best coaches and staff around to help you reach your personal goals.
Tri-State Running Company provides members of our training groups with: • Secure meeting location • Full training schedule • Coaches • Shirts and socks • Clinics • Weekly informational emails • Dedicated Facebook page • Shoe vendor demo runs • Discounts to select races • Preferred race treatment with pre and post-race meeting spots.
Our training groups aren’t just about the workouts, we like to have fun too! Social events are held throughout each session. We have two weekly options for fun runs, and in the summer, we have a free trail series sponsored by Altra.
Whether you’re 18 or 80; a runner, a walker, or run/walker; a complete beginner or experienced, we believe we have a group for you.
