Use It or Lose It

Use It or Lose It

Sponsored by Skratch Hydration, this program is designed for those who want to maintain the fitness they've built up or begin to establish a baseline. The workouts will focus on making fitness enjoyable and making improvements throughout the 7 weeks. Our workouts will be time-based, so there is no pressure to meet any certain distance. Go at your own pace; the workout is yours!  The first 30 participants to register for Use It or Lose It will receive a free custom Fractel hat.

Goal Race

We will train for the Fair Oaks Chicken Run on May 4th. This course is known for its hills, and it is half paved and half dirt trail. All of these aspects will be incorporated into the training program so you’ll be ready to tackle the 5-mile race with confidence!

She has run multiple 5K’s, 10K’s and half marathons in the last five years and is always looking forward to that next race. Fleet Feet Folsom’s training programs have offered Heather and numerous others community, inclusivity, diversity and the love of road running.  She has three mantras: positivity, perseverance and paying it forward.
