In Spring & Fall of 2010, Fleet Feet Sports and New Balance partnered again to help people just like you walk or run your first 5k. The program focuses on male and female beginners, but all levels of walkers and runners are welcome.

Fall No Boundaries Participants first 5K

the summer soltice, June 15th, 2010.

After 12 weeks of training in the rain, sun, heat, and even cold this group did awesome at their first 5k! We are SO PROUD of you! We knew you could do it and YOU DID! Congratulations!!!!!!

June 15th was the culmination of Fleet Feet's 3rd No Boundaries Program, a 12 week 5k training porgram. The group worked for 12 weeks to prepare for The Spring into Summer 5K. Almost all 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.

See what they had to say about their personal success:

"The two most rewarding things (about the program) were 1) meeting some really great people and 2) the feeling of accomplishment from reaching my goal."

"Thank you for offering a program like this. It was exactly what I needed. I am truly appreciative for the opportunity."

"This was a great program, with great people. I cannot say enough about the kind people I have met during this program. My personal goal is to be able to run a 5K without having to walk any of it. Thanks for everything. This was GREAT!"

See more photos in our photo gallery from the big event!! Again, Congratulations!
 


CONGRATS to the No Boundaries Fall Gang!!!!!!!!!
Fall No Boundaries Participants first 5K - the I Can Run 5K, November 7th, 2009.

We are SO PROUD of you! Thanks for sticking with us and for achieving your own personal success! You could do it and YOU DID! Congratulations!!!!!!

Nov 7 was the culmination of Fleet Feet's 2nd No Boundaries Program, a 12 week 5k training porgram. This incredible group of men and women, boys and girls, worked hard running and walking since August 15 to prepare for I Can Run 5k. Almost all 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.

See what they had to say about their personal success:

"My involvement in the No Boundaries program was very helpful in continuing my desire to be more healthy. I am able to run more than I did in the beginning, still slow, but I am running and will continue to increase my time."

"The coaches, Vicki and Ann were WONDERFUL!!! Everyone at Fleet Feet was very supportive and I have met people that I would not have met if I hadn't joined. I hope that you are able to continue the program and make it bigger and better! A big THANK YOU to everyone involved!!"

"The main expectation was to provide a fun, challenging, yet manageable physical activity that my son and I could together could successfully undertake to incorporate more fitness into his life."

"The initial reasons for doing this program were surpassed by our stronger mother/son bond, the tremendous memories on to which we will hold, the friends we made and our new found love of running!"

"This program was filled with so many perks. Not only did we learn the obvious running information, but we were treated to an unbelievable amount of free give always as well as a much needed variety of nutritional knowledge."

"I was actually amazed at the level of attention that each of us got."

See how No Boundaries can change your life too. The next training for Spring 2010 will begin in March. Watch for the official registration kickoff or contact us at staff@fleetfeetnorthwales.com. Can't wait to see you out there with us!
