Road Half Marathon and Marathon Prep Program - 2025We are excited to offer our 2025 Bidwell Classic and Shamrock'n Half Marathon Training Program. This 8-10 week program will get you ready to run one of Chico's most popular and oldest races and/or one of Sacramento's most fun races of the year this coming spring. The Bidwell Classic will take place on March 1st, and the Shamrock'n will be held on March 16th, 2025.
New this year, Half marathon to Marathon
We are offering two tracks for the half marathon program:
Standard - You should be able to comfortably run 6 miles and running about 20 miles per week to join this group. This standard track will get you prepared to run a half marathon and may even grab that PR! We will be running weekly speed work or hill work on Wednesday nights and your long runs on Sundays. If this is your first half marathon or your 20th, the standard half program is a great fit!
Marathon Prep- New this year we are offering a marathon prep track. This is a great option for anyone looking to run a marathon this spring! Running very similarly to the standard track you will have speed or hill workouts on Wednesdays and long runs on Sunday. This will create a solid foundation by the end of the program. Where this program differs from standard is you will continue to build and when the standard track tapers in the last few weeks of the program. You will also have an additional day or two of homework to help prepare you for the transition to the marathon program.
If it's your first marathon or you have run several, this is a great way to get the first phase of your training done!!
The Marathon program this year will look a little different. Rather than a 16-week program starting in January, it will be a 9-week program starting in March, the week after the half program finishes. Completing the Marathon prep track will give you the foundation you need to continue to the marathon phase. This year’s marathon will be targeting the Avenue of the Giants in Humbolt, CA. 2025 Avenue of the Giants Marathon If running a marathon is on your list for 2025, this is a great one to run, but DO NOT wait to register as this race will sell out!
Anyone who finishes the half/marathon prep program will receive $30 off the Marathon program!
