Looking to take your running to the next level this summer? If so, let our exceptional coaching staff, pace groups, educational clinics, and training plans help you meet your goals.

The Fleet Feet Bloomington 10K & Half Marathon Training Program is designed to prepare runners for their first ever 10K or half marathon or help seasoned runners meet a new performance goal. No matter your pace, we welcome you!

We believe it is important to train with a goal in mind, and usually (but not always) that goal is a race. This program is structured for participants to complete the St. Jude 10K and half marathon on Saturday, October 4, 2025 in Bloomington, IL. However, you can also use this program to train for any race you choose or just to run with great people.

Program Details:

When: Weekly group training runs will be at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and 7:30 a.m. on Saturdays. The half marathon program runs for 12 weeks beginning Saturday, July 12, 2025. The 10K program runs for 8 weeks, beginning Saturday, August 9, 2025.

Where: The group will meet at Fleet Feet Bloomington, Tipton Park, Rosa Parks Commons, Connie Link Amphitheater, and other places around town. Participants will receive a program calendar that highlights where the group will meet each week, as well as weekly email reminders.
