From the Organizer
Dave's Spring In-Training Program offers personal coaching with a training plan designed to help you reach your goal. All plans start on Monday, January 4th, 2027. The Mercy Health Glass City Marathon, Half-Marathon (Run-Walk plan available), and Savage 5K will be the target events for all the programs. Each program has different pace groups to meet individual needs and dedicated coaches to assist each group. Join hundreds of other runners who enjoy Training the Dave's Way!
The Training Tilt app is such a fantastic tool for remote trainers that Dave's is now including the app as an option for anyone in the program as another training resource. One of the most useful features in the Training Tilt app is the interactive training calendar, where you can sync your Strava account or Garmin device.
The Dave's REMOTE TRAINERS will receive weekly coaching advice and encouragement from Dave's Training Team through the Training Tilt Platform.
If you're aiming to complete your first half-marathon or 5K, Dave's Running Shop will help you reach the finish line with a detailed, 16-week training plan tailored for the Glass City Half-Marathon/Savage 5K. This plan gradually increases your mileage and helps you adapt to longer runs step by step, so you're prepared to handle the half-marathon or 5K on race day. There is also a run-walk option for the beginner half-marathon training plan with a dedicated run-walk coach.
Before the start of the training program, you will receive a welcome email regarding the logistics. Best of luck and thanks for allowing Dave's Running Shop the opportunity to coach you.
