About this race

The DC Road Runners Run Better, Run Smarter Workshop is a comprehensive hands‑on (feet-on?) training experience designed for runners of all levels—from first‑timers to seasoned athletes preparing for fall races like the Army Ten-Miler, Marine Corps Marathon, and National Capital 20 Miler. 

This workshop brings together industry experts, including:

  • Certified running coaches offering guidance on pacing, training plans, speed work, and race strategy
  • Personal trainers and HYROX specialists teaching strength, conditioning, and hybrid‑fitness essentials
  • Physical therapists and chiropractors providing movement assessments, injury‑prevention insights, and mobility tips
  • Sports nutrition professionals sharing fueling strategies for training, racing, and recovery

You’ll rotate through interactive stations where you can ask questions, get personalized feedback, and learn practical techniques you can apply to your training—whether your goal is to run your first 5 minutes without stopping, shave minutes off your PR, or build the hybrid engine needed for HYROX.

We’ll also keep you fueled with a light breakfast, and we'll have a door prize drawing at the end of the workshop.

If you’re looking to run stronger, train smarter, and feel more confident heading into fall racing season, this workshop is your starting line.

The workshop is free, but we encourage you to register ahead of time as we have limited spaces available.
