CHAARG Run Club 10K + Half-Marathon

Is there anything quite like crossing the finish line of a race + knowing you gave it your all? ✨

This season we are changing things up with CHAARG Run Club as we prepare you to run a 10K [6.2 miles] or Half Marathon [13.1 miles] race in your city this fall 💓

That’s right. Your race, your city, your timing. Let’s run this 🏃‍♀️

I’M READY TO RUN

Choose Your Distance. Choose Your Race. Train To Be Your Best.

We’ll be offering 2 distances to train for: 10K [6.2 miles] or Half Marathon [13.1 Miles]
What plan is right for you?
- 10K: anyone new to running, has taken a hiatus from running, or is coming off of completing a 5K + ready to run a longer distance! Your first long run will be 2 miles.
- Half Marathon plan: will have you ready to tackle a half marathon this fall. You should feel confident running 2-3 miles at a time + the first long run you’ll have is 5 miles.

Choose any race between the weekends of September 24/25 – October 29/30.
*Note – racing entry fees vary — this is not included in your run club registration! You’ll need to sign up for the race on your own.
We’ll have training plans for 9-14 weeks of training + can accommodate most fall races! *If you want to do a race that doesn’t fall in that timeline, email Run@CHAARG.com + we’ll let you know if we can accommodate you!
When registering for CHAARG Run Club – you’ll be required to let us know when your race is so we know what plan to apply.
Not sure where to race? Check out our race spreadsheet here + feel free to add yours if it’s not on there!
Don’t want to race? No problem. You can still join us for Run Club + do your *own* race at the end! [There is just no official CHAARG race ; )].

All training plans start July 24 + will end on the date that you’ve chosen when registering [coinciding with the race of your choice]!
You’ll have all the support you need to train + race your heart out this fall — including:

CHAARG Run Club FAQ

Is this program in person or virtual?

This program is completely virtual! We will connect you with any other CHAARG members on your campus completing run club so you can coordinate your own in-person runs if you want (but we do not coordinate group runs on campus — especially since training starts in the summer).

Do I need previous running experience to sign up for CHAARG Run Club?

No! We want to help you fall in love with running 💕

That being said — we recommend that you can comfortably run 1-2 miles before jumping in to our 10K program + you can comfortably run 2-3 miles before jumping into our half marathon training program. Your first long run for the half marathon training program will be 4-5 miles!

I've never ran longer than a 5K. What plan do you recommend I do?

If you’ve never ran longer than a 5K, a 10K can be a great place to start (double the distance!). But you could also start training for a half marathon (just be sure you feel comfortable running at least 2-3 miles at a time + would feel comfortable going for a 4-5 mile long run your first week of training). We are happy to help you figure out what plan is right for you — just email run@CHAARG.com.

I'm recovering from an injury -- which plan is for me?

If you’re recovering from an injury (but have been cleared to run by an MD or PT) then we recommend checking out the 10K training plan + choosing a longer plan (so picking a late October race to complete)! That way you’ll have a slow build. *Again – before joining this plan, be sure that you comfortably can run 1-2 miles + know that your first long run will be 2 miles!

I'm so excited! When does training start?

Within 3 days of registering you’ll receive an email with how to get set up on Final Surge. You’ll receive your first newsletter with all of the tools you’ll need on Sunday, July 24. Your first run will be Monday, July 25!

You’ll be able to see your training plan in Final Surge as soon as you set up your account 🤩
