Weekly Workouts
Tuesday Group Workouts
Every Tuesday night Fleet Feet Racing members meet for Interval, Threshold, and other quality workouts. These workouts are designed to prepare our athletes for races from the 5K to the Marathon. Warm-up starts at 5:45 p.m. from 500 University Avenue and our actually speed sessions are held at the Sacramento State University's main track.

Weekend Group Long Runs
A variety of weekend long run options are arranged by email. On Tuesday or Wednesday the long run coordinator requests long run leaders (i.e., anyone who is willing to commit to a particular place and time) to send him their long run plans, and those plans are then summarized in a subsequent email sent to all team members on Thursday or Friday. RSVP's to the long run leaders are encouraged in case there are any last-minute changes of plan, but just showing up is fine as well. The long run leaders will announce their intended distance, but all paces and distances are welcome. Family and friends who are not team members are also welcome to join.
Common starting locations of the runs include:
