Race calendar for August. Don’t lose your rhythm over the summer!
Many runners take advantage of the summer months to go to the beach. others see the summer as the time of year to step up their training schedule and make up for time lost in the rest of the year. We know it is hot outside but you need to maintain your training schedule if you want to finish and get your PB in the Trinidad Alfonso Valencia Marathon and Half Marathon. You can train by yourself and against the clock but if you want that authentic race feel you need to enter as many smaller races as possible to be at your peak when you are at the start line in Valencia.
