Coach: Beth Quinlan-Pritchett
Beth, a native Canadian, was transplanted to the USA when she met her American husband overseas while on a teaching assignment. While traveling and running in new places is one of Beth’s passions, her other passion is building community around running. Beth’s belief in bringing people together, no matter age or ability, can best be seen in her last 15 years of coaching whether from Road Runners Club of America programs, starting running programs at churches, in small elementary, middle and high schools, mixed adult and female groups or just about any one she can convince, including her 2 daughters and husband! As an experienced runner and competitor at multiple distances from 5k to Ultras, Beth will tell you that the best part of marathon training (besides geeking out on mechanics and awesome track workouts) is those long training runs or hard track workouts in a group. Seeing others reach for things that are challenging and succeeding is so inspirational and that shared experience and sense of camaraderie is life changing. Being an RRCA certified coach and achieving multiple PRs and awards in many local races such as, St. Michaels, the Freedom Run, Bird-in-Hand Half Marathon, and the Marine Corp Marathon, this is not what motivates Beth. While PRs and races are wonderful achievements, Beth’s goal is to create a community where healthspan is positively increased and Marathoners become more the norm and not just the 1%.

Description
Do you have a goal of running 26.2 this fall? Our marathon training program will prepare you to race your best – whether it’s your first or 50th marathon. Along the way you’ll learn about increasing your mileage, tempo runs, track workouts, hill workouts, recovery runs, nutrition, hydration, injury prevention, and much more.
Each group will meet twice a week and receive weekly training plans via Final Surge from an expert coach and learn about long runs, tempo runs, track workouts, easy runs, recovery runs, hydration, injury prevention, and much more. Get ready to train for your target marathon!
Fall Training will start mid-June 2025 through October 19th, 2024 and target a marathon within that time frame. If you are running a later marathon, please indicate so on your registration and your coach will work with you on developing a plan. Start and end dates vary by location with some locations.
Requirements
To safely meet your goal we do ask that you have a base level of running under your belt before joining this group. What does that mean? We ask that you are able to run/walk 8 miles at one time at the start of the program and are currently running at least 15 miles per week. This does not mean you need to be able to run the entire way but just that you are comfortable covering that distance. Are you not sure if you meet these requirements? Don’t worry ask the coach for your location! You will be surprised that most people meet these requirements and are able to join the group.
What To Expect
- SUPPORTED GROUP RUNS AND WORKOUTS TWICE A WEEK WITH PLANNED ROUTES, HYDRATION AND COMPANIONSHIP
- POSITIVE AND WELCOMING ATMOSPHERE FOR RUNNERS AND WALKERS OF ALL LEVELS
