Couch to 5K Learn to Run Registration Opens

Back by popular demand, the Hopkinton Running Club is offering a Couch to 5K Learn to Run program beginning on April 6, leading up to the Sharon Timlin 5K Road Race on June 21.   

Under the direction of certified trainer Erin Mahoney, the program is designed to help novice runners and those with some running experience successfully train and complete a 5K road race. Couch to 5K participants will meet at 8 a.m. on Sunday mornings for a group workout and also receive weekly training programs, access to an online training group, advice from experienced trainers and runners, and race day support.  

The $75 registration fee includes a full year membership in the Hopkinton Running Club, a technical running shirt and a donation to the One Fund.  Past participants have come from many area towns and have boasted an impressive success rate. 

Interested community members can register at runhopkinton.org. For more information email Eileen Warren at emcswarren@gmail.com.
