their first 5K - the Kugel Ball 5K on June 6th.

June 6 was the culmination of Fleet Feet's 1st No Boundaries Program, a 12 week 5k training porgram. This incredible group of men and women worked hard running and walking since March 21 to prepare for The Kugel Ball 5k. Most had never completed a 5K before. The program not only taught the group that they could complete the 5k, but also created some very strong friendships.

Here what the participants had to say...

"No Boundaries was the best thing I've ever done for myself!"

"It was great to have a group to motivate me and keep me committed."

"I don't think I could have done this without the group."

"The coaches were great!"

"It was great having someone believe in my physical abilities to complete a challenge I had never done, and providing the motivation and encouragement to complete the challenge"

Congratulations again No Boundaries participants!

Interested in participating in our next No Boundaries program? Registration for our next program will begin in another month.

Run 183 Miles in 2 Days with 11 Friends! 

Myomed Ragnar Relay in Washington, DC

This 183 mile adventure-fest will push you and 11 pals through the stunning scenery of the Potomac River Valley. Starting in the Appalachian town of Cumberland, MD, your team will head east along the C & O Canal as it snakes along the Potomac. Around night fall you'll get off the trail and run through the quiet streets of many charming historic Civil War-Era towns, ultimately passing within the shadows of the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. The race (and your stamina) wraps in the heart of the nation's capitol.

You too can do 183 miles!

Almost anyone can run in this relay race...if you train. During the relay, each team member runs three legs, ranging between 3 and 8 miles and varying in difficulty. So, from the elite runner down to the intermittent jogger, it's the ideal relay for anyone in search of an unforgettable adventure.

load 'em up, move 'em out

How do you get from one exchange to the next? Each team is allowed two support vehicles. The first vehicle will drop off the first runner, drive ahead a few miles, cheer the runner on, and provide them with water, snacks, and plenty of love. That vehicle will then drive ahead to the first exchange point to drop off the second runner and pick up the first runner when that leg is complete. They will repeat this pattern for six legs until they hand off to their second vehicle. This leapfrogging pattern will continue all the way to the finish line.

The goods...

In addition to flawless logistics and a beautiful course you will receive:

  • Live music along the course!
  • Medals for all course finishers!
  • Best decorated vehicle award!
  • Tech tee's for all participants
  • Awards for all division winners!
  • Award for the best team name!
  • A rocking finish line party!
  • T-Shirts for all volunteers!

 There are No Boundaries to what you can accomplish in 2009!

In the Spring of 2008 No Boundaries coaches guided participants into a fitness routine and gave them the tools and the confidence they needed to start living healthy lifestyles.  Across the country over 4500 participants ran or walked across the finish line of their first 5K.  Participants grew in confidence, lost weight and changed their lives forever.  This is a program that has legs, but more importantly it has heart.  Boundaries have been broken and lives have been changed. 

The Fleet Feet Sports No Boundaries 5K training program is designed for beginner runners and people who are currently inactive or minimally active.  This program began March 21 and concluded with a 5K race on June 6.  See what our participants had to say and more; No Boundaries.

Please contact the store if you are interested in the next program beginning August 15th, 215-646-8510.  For more information on how the program works go to Training/ Events - No Boundaries 5K Training Program, or click here No Boundaries
