Donnie and Tom Flahavan have been running, competing, and coaching for over 35 years. They have introduced hundreds of people of various levels to running at the ranch. Their coaching style is fun and educational.

This week you will learn basic running form, uphill and downhill skills, and hiking transitions along with tips on safety, gear, and how to take it all home to enhance your workout routine. The classes are designed for all levels whether you are a beginner or an advanced runner.  There is a morning run option that will precede the same hike routes. We will be hiking most of the uphill as we do not run the entire mountain.  If you want to learn how to become a better power hiker this could be a great opportunity on the trails. Demo trail running shoes will be available in various sizes prior to each class.
