Training
Whether you choose to walk or run, are an experienced runner or a first
time runner, Team Lifeline will help train you to complete either the
half or full marathon. Participants will receive a series of different
training programs to choose from depending on skill level. The skill levels
will range from novice to experienced runners.
In addition, Team Lifeline will offer online coaching which will give
runners access to experienced runners and coaches that will be able to
guide runners through the training process. In areas where there are multiple
Team Lifeline runners, Team Lifeline will organize group runs and health
and fitness seminars.
Training Network
As a participant in Team Lifeline you are part of an international team. Group
runs and other events will provide you with a network of other runners
that you can train with and celebrate with at the finish line.
Fundraising
Team Lifeline will provide participants with proven fundraising strategies.
75% of all the money raised will go directly to Chai Lifeline/Camp Simcha.
