What is Ride The Wave?

It's a program designed to help intermediate runners prepare for the Lake Run. It is also designed to help runners improve their speed, their distance, or both!

There will be 10 sessions held between late-February and the end of April.

Participants are assigned to be in groups of similarly-paced runners with 1 or 2 more experienced runners serving as leaders. The first week will begin with a 2 mile assessment run, each week incorporating a different training run and/or longer distances, culminating with 2 ‘practice’ runs around Lake Bloomington to prepare for the Lake Run on May 5.

Who Can Benefit?

  • Anyone who can already run three miles.
  • People who run a little, but who'd really like to work up to seven and a half miles
  • People who want to improve their time at the 7K or 12K Lake Run.
  • Families, couples or friends who want to make preparing for the Lake Run a group event.
  • People looking for training partners with similar goals.

Ride the Wave will be held held from 5:15pm-7pm on Wednesdays, February 22 through April 25 at the G.E. Park building. Parking is available in the G.E. Park lot, as well as the trucking parking lot across G.E. road.

The registration fee includes:

  • Ten weeks of group running outside, with more experienced leaders from the Lake Run Club.
  • Paid entry into the Lake Run 2012, to be held Saturday, May 5, with the friendliest post-race party around, and a Lake Run Race t-shirt.
  • Loads of fun and camaraderie with other Ride the Wave runners.
  • A very cool technical Ride The Wave racing shirt.
  • A chance to strengthen your pride and sense of accomplishment!

All registration will be on-line ONLY :
