Jeff Galloway's Training Programs™ are for all levels of runners, from beginning runners to Boston qualifiers. This Low-mileage, Injury-free Training Program is for those who have jobs, families, and a life! The Tacoma Galloway Training Program meets on Saturday mornings at various locations across the Tacoma area, and follows Jeff Galloway’s training guidelines to get you safely across the finish
line from a 5k to a full marathon if your goals are to finish, or to achieve a ‘PR’. Our group runs feature walking breaks at regular intervals based on your skill level. Pace groups (of usually 8-15) are set up according to current fitness level, and a Group Leader is assigned to keep the speed slow enough for all members, and to enforce walk breaks from the beginning to the end. Most of our runs will be on the many trail systems available to us. These will include Point Defiance Park, Foothills Trail & Shuster Parkway. Running is more fun when running together, as each member is motivated to run more often, and stay injury free. As you share stories, and pull one another along, the miles go by much more quickly. Lifelong friendships are formed in these mission-oriented, but laid back groups.
