Lincoln Running Company to Host Registration Event for Lincoln Marathon

Join the Lincoln Running Company (www.lincrunningcompany.com) and the Lincoln Track Club for #LTCSignUpSaturday on Saturday, January 5, 2019. This event will be held at the Lincoln Running Company (1213 Q St.) and features a special chance to register for the 2019 Lincoln National Guard Marathon, along with a group run and yogurt bar. The group run will start at 7 a.m. and will take you by course landmarks, cheer stations with marathon icons, and designated selfie stations. The first 50 people to register for the marathon will receive a special pair of #LTCSignUpSaturday gloves so you can brag about your registration status in style. Those who post their selfies using #LTCSignUpSaturday on social media will have the chance to win Lincoln National Guard Marathon gear.

The Lincoln National Guard Marathon was voted one of the best marathons in the United States, according to a poll conducted by RaceRaves®. So get a training run in and register during the #LTCSignUpSaturday event!

In addition, Ann Ringlein, manager of the Lincoln Running Company, will be the instructor for the Downtown YMCA’s annual Marathon Training Course, which spans January 3 – May 2, 2019. The course is designed to teach participants how to run a marathon or to run at a faster pace by training with others at their same fitness level, along with offering individual help along the way. During the four-month training, participants will not only run multiple times each week, but also enjoy the benefits of regular yoga sessions, professional speakers, strength and speed training, and more.

First-time participants are welcome to learn about the program before registering by attending an orientation at the Downtown YMCA on Thursday, December 13 at 6 p.m. Register in person or online at ymcalincoln.org/marathontraining.
