HARD WORK -- IT'S BETTER WITH FRIENDS
At Culture Athletics we believe that hard work, inspiration, and improvement is best shared with others. That's why the social nature of running is at the centre of our program. Our diverse community is inviting and supportive -- and does an awesome job in bringing out the best in each other.
"It's not supposed to be easy, but it is supposed to be fun."
This is our central tenet and we live it through and through.
THERE's TWO MEMBERSHIP LEVELS
RACE-SPECIFIC - $80/MONTH
This is our more comprehensive membership level.
Our coaching staff will give you an extensive training calendar that will strategically build your fitness to peak on Race Day and will adjust your programming as needed along the way.
Utilizing our comprehensive library of training calendars and our coaching staff will work with you to determine which is best suited for your experience and goals. From there, we will account for any special considerations in your training.
This level of membership also includes three 1-on-1 check-ins throughout the training calendar to review progress, discuss any issues/considerations and to create an effective raceplan.
Our race-specific calendars are 10-16 weeks long depending on the race distance. Ideally new athletes register before the calendar begins, but we will accept athletes in the first half of the training cycle. Later than that athletes will be accepted on a case-by-case basis.
This membership is great for...
- Someone looking to run their first half or full marathon.
- Someone looking for a more personalized coaching style for their next race.
- Experienced runners that have plateaued or are struggling to hit an elusive PB.
NON RACE-SPECIFIC - $60/MONTH
This is an "always on" program.
This means it doesn't focus on training you for one specific race/moment. Rather, it provides weekly structure and workouts to consistently improve your running skillset and fitness level.
This membership is very comprehensive and contains all in-person elements of the Race-Specific membership (and email correspondence with our coaching staff), but doesn't include any 1-on-1 check-ins or personalization in programming. That being said, our coaching staff will always be hear to help guide you along your running journey!
This membership is great for...
- New runners looking to add structure to their running, develop proper form and increase their mileage in a safe/strategic way.
- Experienced runners just looking for group workouts and others to push them.
- Social runners just looking for a good time and fun community.
