Winter 2026/2027 Adult Full & Half Marathon Training Morning - Cary
About the race
Winter 2026/2027 Adult Full & Half Marathon Training in Cary is brought to you by Triangle Run Smart Training, presented by Pace Yourself Run Company and The Running PTs.
The class is 16 weeks long and is geared toward helping adults train for a full or half marathon, whether it is their first or they are a veteran runner looking to improve their race time. All paces are welcome. This class is NOT for beginner runners: you should have some prior running experience and are advised to come in regularly running 10-15 miles per week for lowest injury risk as training mileage increases through the season.
The class includes a detailed daily plan over the 16 weeks, 2 coached group runs per week, suggested cross-training and strength training workouts, and coach-supported Saturday group long runs.
Program dates: November 22, 2026 - March 14, 2027 (no class on Thanksgiving, Thursday 11/26/26). Group training meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5:30AM-6:30AM. Group long runs with all winter adult classes take place on Saturdays at 7:30AM-9:30AM. Saturday run locations vary weekly and rotate throughout the Triangle area.
Coach Kelly Svihovec will coach this class. Questions go to Training Coordinator Kelly Svihovec at [email protected].
