RMRR Training Groups
Track workouts
Track workouts are a great way to improve speed, endurance and overall fitness level for runners from novice to the speediest of rabbits. We have two regular track workout days now!
South side track workouts are every Wednesday, April through October starting at 6:30 p.m. at Heritage High School, located at 1401 West Geddes Ave, Littleton. We’ll start at 6:15pm early and late in the season because of darkness. See our Facebook page for Wednesday updates.
North side track workouts are every Sunday at 1pm, April through October except on weekends when we have an RMRR Trophy Series race. North side workouts are at Mountain Range High School located at 12500 Huron Street.
The track workouts are open and free to all RMRR members. Non-members are welcome to try a couple of workouts for free before joining. See our track workouts page for more details and workout schedules.
Marathon Training Series
The Marathon Training Series is a series of 3 fully supported races that RMRR has every year to help runners prepare for the fall marathon season. The series consists of 3 10/20 mile races. For more information about the series, including the dates, location, and how to sign up, go to our Marathon Training Series page.
Racewalking Group
8am, Saturday morning race walk training. We’ll meet the same time and place as the running group, then head out along the trail separately. The format is an easy 10 minute warmup, followed by some stretching/dynamic flexibility drills, then continue on for as many miles as you have on your schedule. Coffee/breakfast/lunch afterwards for those that are interested. All skill levels are welcome, experienced race walkers as well as new race walkers. To join our race walker mailing list join our Yahoo group,

RMRR supports members who form and join RMRR teams to run in one of the many relay/team events in the Denver area each year. Each race has multiple age and gender categories, and members of all abilities are encouraged to participate. For races and rules, see our Relay and Team Running page.
