Coaching

Interested in seeing what GVH is all about? Come to a few of our workouts before joining - we welcome visitors! See what we do, meet our folks and then make a decision if you'd like to be a part of our club. We work hard to improve and get positive results . . . at the same time we’re there for lots of fun and camaraderie. Dues paid members have access to the monthly training schedules we post on this site. If you have a particular race in mind you would like training advice for, need tweaking of the current schedules, have an injury, or just need general advice, see me at a workout or email me.

May through August- workouts at the University of Rochester outdoor track on Wilson Boulevard. Track, roads, and trails are used based on individuals’ needs. Warmup at 5:30pm, and at 6pm we convene for a few minutes for a quick review of workout options. Some GVH members workout on Thursdays at the same time and location. Generally workouts last an hour to an hour and a half. We finish up with a mile or two cool down run, core exercises and stretching.

Thursday nights in August we have the Innovative Edge Sports Summer XC series races at Cobbs Hill Park at around 6PM. These are good low key races to prepare for the fall XC season, including kid races and a 5K XC race. The last Thursday night concludes with the "Tour de Pain".

Late August through the fall - workouts at Cobbs Hill Park (near Lake Riley behind basketball courts) on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and at Genesee Valley Park, in the Glen. We remain in those locations until daylight savings time at which time we return to the Univ. of Rochester Track or roads.
