Welcome to Houston Fit. We are a training
program for walkers and runners designed with the goal of
completing the Houston half or full marathon in mind. Our
coaches are devoted to getting you in the best shape of your
life in a non-intimidating, fun, and safe environment. Upon
joining, you will receive day-by-day training schedules, Saturday
morning group runs/walks, access to trained coaches, informational
seminars and a Houston Fit Marathon Training T-shirt.
Ask anyone who has completed their goal of getting in shape
or finishing a half or full marathon, and I'm sure they will
tell you it has truly changed his/her life. You will feel
fitter, happier, and mentally much stronger; and all in a
short 27 weeks.
Whether you are a couch-potato, walker, casual jogger, or
marathon veteran, this marathon training program is the most
enjoyable, most inspiring, and most efficient way to get in
the best shape of your life.
Does just hearing the word marathon make you shake in your
shoes? That's okay, come out and join us anyway. Our participants
have various goals ranging from getting in shape to running
or walking the full marathon distance. You will have fun and
meet other people just like you to exercise with and help
you accomplish your fitness goals.
