Since 2007 Genesis has prepared new runners to run their first 5k and has helped experienced runners run their fastest 5k. Through a coaching program of thorough preparation, incremental training and accountability from a coach and other participants, runners gain the confidence and preparation they need to finish their first event. 

NOTICE: The spring 2020 Genesis 5k class will be held as a virtual class.   

What: This is a 9 week training program for beginning runners starting on Tuesday May 5th to prepare for the Glow Run 5k on July 2nd in Charleston, WV or a virtual 5k any where you'd like.   There is no running experience required.  

When:  The first week of training begins on Tuesday, May 5th and continues for 9 weeks. 

Where:  As a virtual class, the class lessons will be delivered by email and posted to a closed Facebook group.  The training plan calls for three days a week at your own pace and schedule.   
 
What you get: 

• A proven program to make new runners successful
• Day-by-day program to follow with weekly written lessons and video instruction from the coach
• Facebook group to post your questions, runs, successes and requests for socially distant running partners.  
• Instruction on good running form, injury prevention,  and nutrition for runners
• The motivation that comes from having a coach and a proven system. 
• Thorough race day preparation

General Admission is a flat $25 for individuals that want the emails and access to the groups. Parents can share the information with kids and it's our hope that families will participate together.
