Clinics

CARA’s Half Marathon Training Program includes 5 informational clinics (with the exception of the Downtown site which offers 3). The first is the Kick Off Clinic, where you’ll receive your program materials and hear an overview of the program! Registration is also available at the clinic. The remaining clinics cover essential topics to help you in your training. We encourage you to attend them all. You may attend any one of the below locations.
