2010 Fitcorp/RFR Saturday Group Runs
As a member of the Run for Research marathon team, you are automatically registered for the 2010 Fitcorp Marathon Training Program. Fitcorp’s training schedule begins on December 5 and continues each Saturday morning at 8:00 am through training season. Fitcorp will open at 7:45 am so we recommend you arrive early to stretch and warm up. You are welcome to use their locker rooms and showers after your run.
The marathon training program is a benefit to participating with the Run for Research team. You will not be responsible for the Fitcorp fee.
Below is the Saturday long run schedule. When multiple distances are listed, choose the option best for your fitness level. Contact coach Brian Hamill with questions regarding mileage choices.

On Couse Long Run Events
Two special on course long runs are scheduled for the season. On these dates we will not be meeting Fitcorp.
February 13: RFR and the official Boston Marathon charities will run the last 16/17 miles of the course beginning in Natick and ending on Boylston St, Boston. Details on meeting times and location will be announced soon.
March 27: RFR and the official Boston Marathon charities will run the first 21 miles of the course beginning in Hopkinton and ending in Newton near Boston College. Details on meeting times and location will be announced soon.
With questions regarding the Fitcorp Long Run Schedule contact Group Run Coordinator, Scott Rumrill or the ALF Office.
Note: In case of inclement weather, call Fitcorp's run hotline (617) 375-5600 ext.103 to check the status of the run. The recorded message is updated by 6 a.m. on Saturday morning.
Volunteers needed for waterstops
Getting more than 200 runners to the finish line is a huge job. If you or a family member or friend who can help out with waterstops during long runs, please contact the RFR office.
Out-of-Town Team Members
If you do not live in Boston or are not able to attend the group runs, the group run distances are still a good guide for your own training schedule, contact Coach Brian Hamill for more information.
