Jamie's program slowly and painlessly prepares your mind and body to run a 5K race in a supportive community environment. You'll start off alternating between walking and running small distances, and slowly build up endurance over the course of nine weeks, so you're ready to run 5 kilometers - or 30 minutes non-stop for the Haunted Hustle 5K on the afternoon of Saturday, October 20. This program also includes injury prevention and stretching tips. Program participants also receive a team shirt to wear on race day and a celebration party from Beans 'N Cream Coffeehouse.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This running group is designed to take runners from the 5K to the 10K or half marathon in eleven weeks. We will meet together once each week. Parks/locations will rotate in Sun Prairie, Deforest and on Madison's Eastside.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Class starts on Saturday, March 10. First class will meet at Running Diva Mom Studio in Sun Prairie. Class meets for eleven weeks at 7:00 am on Saturday mornings. This is a combined class. The half marathon group will meet earlier on Saturday mornings, as the distances increase.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There will be class, but no instructor on April 7 (Please consider running the Parkinson's 5K that morning.). A full training program with locations will be sent to participants during the week of the first class. Must be able to run/walk 30 mins at first class.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This non-competitive running group is geared towards women of all paces and abilities. Everyone will run/walk at their own pace and an out-and-back route will be planned, so that the entire group can stick together. This is a very encouraging and fun atmosphere and is perfect for runners that have run a handful of 5K races.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We will be training for the Run Madtown Twilight 10K in Madison on the evening of Saturday, May 26 and the Half Marathon on the morning of Sunday, May 27. This race is optional and is not included with your session registration.</span><br />

This is a general guide to figure out when it's time for a new pair - based on your mileage. Always consult a professional at your local running store and listen to your body to prevent injury. The general rule is to replace your running shoes every 300-600 miles. Walking and running mileage both count towards wear.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm here to show you that your goals are possible. Your
dreams can be a reality - and will be. And that you are worth it. The time is

coaching business, three busy kids (ranging from 2-14 yrs) and an understanding
spouse who supports it all. I am not a natural-born runner, but have completed
more than 60 half marathons & 14 marathons in the past decade. I love
showing other women that they are capable of anything and motivating them
throughout their journey.</span></div>

a schedule that will work with your family's schedule. I will also check in
with you weekly for the duration of your program.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you are looking for some motivation during the dreary month of February, "Girl, Wash Your Face" gave me a kick in the butt. Rachel Hollis is the lifestyle author at <a href="https://thechicsite.com/" target="_blank">The Chic Site</a> and I've been identifying with her words for the past couple of weeks. I received an advance review copy of her new book and .... it rocks, people! I eagerly flipped through page after page until this mama was up way too late past her bedtime.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In each chapter Hollis reveals a lie she once believed about herself. Self-doubts as a mother, wife, friend ... woman. She shares the deepest stories of struggle and triumph and then reveals her tips that helped her overcome those feelings about herself. I laughed and I even cried a little bit as I read her raw emotions on paper.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I identified with her as a busy mompreneur and long-distance runner who is constantly learning about herself, how to push boundaries and how to "do it all" while making your family, your spouse .... and yourself happy in the process. I loved this book and already know who I'm sharing my copy with.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Whether you are struggling with finding a fitness routine, finding balance or finding yourself ... you will enjoy "Girl, Wash Your Face". Rachel has shared her gifts of honesty, humor and motivation all in one book. Go enjoy it ...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Like many of us, I hated running the mile in gym class. I thought it was because I wasn't a "runner" or an athlete. I told myself that it was too hard and it must be easier for everyone else. That little girl just didn't know how to push herself outside of her comfort zone. I was too shy to try out for extra-curricular activities, until my parents nudged me along to do so. Even then I only went through the motions and never really put in the effort. I am not a naturally-gifted athlete. I didn't like playing basketball in junior high school. My stomach turned as I was in line to bat in gym class. I was awkward on the tumbling mat. I was not coordinated enough to hit a tennis ball. I was not driven enough to chase a soccer ball down the field either. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As an adult, I've learned a lot about myself. I was right ... I am NOT a naturally-talented runner. I'm not a gifted athlete. The awkwardness and the fight are what make the journey so rewarding for me. I work hard at it every day. I show up. I push. I struggle. I improve. I see results.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I put in the work. I do what I ask of myself. I can do "hard stuff".</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Life has thrown me several curve balls over the past decade -- in and out of my running shoes. I've struggled, I've learned, I've grown. But I never gave up. Running has proved to me that I am stronger than any obstacle that stands in my way. I don't have to better than anyone else. I don't have to be faster than the girl next to me at the gym. I don't have to outrun everyone else on the trail. I'm competing with myself and the obstacles that stand in my way.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm not talented. I'm tough.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Are you interested in running your first 5K? Join Jamie
Adcock, Madison's Running Diva Mom, for this gentle introduction to running.
Jamie's program slowly and painlessly prepares your mind and body to run a 5K
race in a supportive community environment. You'll start off alternating
between walking and running small distances, and slowly build up endurance over
the course of nine weeks, so you're ready to run 5 kilometers - or 30 minutes
non-stop for the <a href="http://www.hermadisonhalf.com/"><span style="color: #0563c1;">Her Madison 5K</span></a> on
June 24, 2018. This program also includes injury prevention and stretching
tips. Program participants also receive a team shirt to wear on race day and a
celebration party from Beans 'N Cream Coffeehouse. Race registration not
included and is optional.</span><br />
