Attaining your exercise goal by running is easier than you think, and there’s a lot more out there than training for a 10k or marathon. This class will introduce (or reintroduce) you to the sport of track & field.  Your goal may be to get around the track once or to run a full mile.  You may be a former runner looking to awaken those dormant muscles you haven’t been able to stretch out for years, or maybe you’re someone looking for the camaraderie of training with a group without having to go out for miles at a time on the road.  This program will focus on setting and reaching a goal, safe training methods and progressions, and injury prevention.

All skill levels (walk/jog through experienced) are welcome, and it’s never too late to start.  Coach Matt Green’s adult track team annually adds members in their 50s and older who are competing on the track for the first time. While competition is not part of this program, options to compete locally in either the Maine Corporate Track Association (ages 18-90+), the Maine Senior Games (age 45+), or Maine USATF meets (all ages) will be shared.  Practices will be adjusted to your skill and fitness level and tailored individually so you can hit that personal goal.

Masks must be worn. 
Please bring your own water bottle filled.
You can park in the high school lot next to the Stadium(track)
