Using the Power of Running to Make a Difference for Girls


Welcome to Solemates and congratulations on choosing this challenging goal of training for a marathon, half marathon, or trail run and raising money for Girls on the Run!

We have training plans for walkers, beginning runners and intermediate runners.  The walker and beginners plans are for the half marathon.  The intermediate plan can be used for any or all of the races.  If you are doing the Lead King Loop, please consult our coaches below for strategies and modifications to get you ready for the trail distance you will be running.  If you are an advanced runner and are looking for some training advice, please consult with us individually. We have included the group runs in Grand Junction and Montrose into our training plans. If you cannot join us, you can simply do the workout on your own. Most of our training information we found at www.halhigdon.com. We believe in his training programs because he slowly builds up, has "cut back" weeks every 4 weeks or so, and plenty of rest days. We believe this is the formula for safely preparing for a half marathon (or any race distance).  

Please feel free to call us or email us with any additional training questions.  If you need to modify the training plans (i.e. number of days running, days of long runs, need more speed, etc) or have nutrition,injury/prevention, stretching, strength training or any other questions, please contact us!
