New Group Starts in Two Weeks: 10 Weeks to the 10-Miler Training Program

Aug 11, 2010

Named in 2007 as Austin's best new race and in '08 as Austin's favorite race, the fourth annual Run for the Water is yet again a marquee event on the central Texas racing calendar. Produced by the Gazelle Foundation, the 10-Miler features a downtown course with a west Austin twist, hitting the scenic routes through Tarrytown before making the descent back to Lake Austin Boulevard. Whether you're a seasoned veteran of the race or this will be your first, come train under a program designed by world-class runner and locally renowned coach Gilbert Tuhabonye - the man who designed the course and brings the race to you each and every year! Over 10 weeks you will gain a broad understanding of training philosophy, race strategy, nutrition, and more! Workouts includes hills, core strengthening, intervals, tempos, fartleks and long runs.
