→ Never run a mile? That’s perfectly okay — many of our participants start right there.
If you’re curious about running a half (13.1 miles) or marathon (26.2 miles), we recommend attending one of our two Chasing a Finish Line introductory classes.
This relaxed, no-pressure session is a chance to meet your coaches, learn how the training works, understand the time commitment, and ask any questions you have. You don’t need to be fast, experienced, or even sure yet — just curious. No RSVP required.
Chasing a Finish Line introductory classes:
- Thursday, January 15 at 6:00 PM
- Thursday, February 5 at 6:00 PM
Headwaters Foundation (119 W Main - Downtown Missoula)
Free and open to all. No RSVP required.
