Don‘t live in Richmond but need help preparing for 26.2?

Look no further than our Virtual Marathon Training Team, designed to motivate and prepare individuals to run the VCU Health Richmond Marathon on November 13. Modeled after our award-winning Richmond-based Sports Backers Marathon Training Team, you’ll find yourself not just equipped with a detailed 23-week program (begins June 5/6), but a great crew of experienced coaches to correspond with by email. One of our favorite perks? Race-day on-course support from our army of Sports Backers Marathon Training Team coaches and participants. Let our virtual team carry you to 26.2…when you hit that final stretch at the VCU Health Richmond Marathon, you’ll be glad you didn’t go at it alone!
