PPTC’s fall Marathon Training Group (MTG) officially started on July 18th. The Marathon Training Group meets every Tuesday morning at 6:30AM for speedwork led by Coach John Honerkamp. To kick-off MTG, Jiyoung Han, who is planning on running her first marathon this fall when she runs the New York City Marathon and who will be training with MTG, took first day of MTG photos of some of the MTG runners. Runners who can’t make the AM session meet at 7PM on Tuesdays to do the same workout proscribed by Coach John and led by Sarah Stone.

Good luck to everyone on this training cycle! Here is the MTG Class of 2023!
