WEEKLY TRAINING SCHEDULE
Tuesdays @ Morgan House, Mountain View, CA [Please check our running group calendar for more accurate place, dates and time]
Together we have ran and raised over $10,000 to bring clean water overseas and provide resources to mentor young children through Samaritan’s Purse. This year we will partner with Baptist Global Response.
At Heart & Sole you won’t have to worry about having the fancy dri-fit or latest gadgets, or have already completed a marathon to start running with us. We meet you where you are and hopefully try and challenge you to go a little further. So let’s have some fun through the sweat, and get on the road together. Join us!
OUR CALENDAR
Please always check our calendar for exact place, time and date for all our meetings
WHAT TO EXPECT
1. Relationships are more important than the runs
themselves. We run together, cheer each other on, leave no
one behind.
2. We tend to be working professionals in our
late 20’s to early 40’s. But everyone 13+ is welcome. Youth
will need their parent’s permission to run.
3. Tuesdays
in Training- we meet at a member’s garage and run various
routes from the Permanente Creek Trail. These runs are flat
and mostly asphalt with some dirt.
4. Monthly Dinner
(every 2nd Tuesday)- We know not everyone talks while they
run, so we want to set aside a night to get to know our
runners better over a home cooked meal.
5. We pray
before we eat. “Eh? I thought you were just a running
group?”
When we get a chance to share a meal together,
we like to say prayer for the meal. Up to you of course to
join us, but wanted to give you a heads up. This running
group is sponsored and led by members of Avenue Baptist
Church, and we welcome everyone, whether you hold similar
beliefs or not.
6. All members of Heart & Sole who
fundraise with us will receive a 25% discount on early race
registration fees for select races we enter together in
appreciation for your help.
7. Do you only run? We like
to hike and cycle too, and will be sprinkling in a few hikes
and rides throughout the year.

to start the runs on times so if you're running late, please
let one of the staff know ahead of time

reflective clothing when running at night, we have lights
