Summer Fun

Full Speed ahead to a #2021OutsideYourComfortZone.

With the increase in events and opportunities arising for more training, we want you to know where the coaches will be. Below you will find a new section of the newsletter that we hope will make it more helpful each month.

This month you can also find some featured articles on our website such as:

IMMD/IMAC Training Camp

What better way to ramp up training than to head to camp. Join us for our IMMD/IMAC training camp from August 13 - 15, 2021. We are so excited to offer this opportunity to spend the weekend together

Sonic one-on-one athletes get a $175 discount on camp. For this camp Sonic will be providing many of the meals but you are on your own for lodging.

Hogsback Half Marathon is OPEN

After a very long wait, we finally received approvals on our permitting for the 2021 edition of the Hogsback Half Marathon. This is a beautiful 13.1 mile race over the hills of north west Connecticut. As always, we will be working with Running For Rescues again in 2021 as our race charitable partner. 2020 was a rough year for lots of people, especially charities that rely on events like races for funding, so we hope to make up for 2020 with this year's race.

Sonic athletes receive 50% off race registration fees at checkout, so its a win-win. If you have questions about the race contact kelly@sonicendurance.com.

Go The Distance Run Program

Sonic Endurance is thrilled to be launching our new group training program in Katy, Texas, "Go The Distance."

Go The Distance is an 18 week training program for the half marathon and marathon distance. Our in person goal race is the 50th Anniversary Chevron Houston Marathon. Our in person program includes 4 coach led workouts each week in a variety of locations around Katy, Texas and Cinco Ranch, Texas. We will be focusing on building speed and that long distance endurance.

Whether this is your first marathon or your 20th this program will have something for you. All paces are welcome, and there is an option for both morning and evening workouts.
