Working hard in a group of other people working toward the same goal is a whole different experience and a great way to take your running to the next level.

This is a beginner/intermediate group for those running their first steps and for more experienced runners chasing PR’s.

While RRCA certified Coach Deb Voiles has had the satisfaction of completing hundreds of races, launching new runners on their running journey and enhancing the accomplishments of longtime runners is what keeps her motor running.

Recently renovated, this Clearwater park, just outside of Safety Harbor, Pinellas County’s Del Oro Park is an ideal training location. With an asphalt-paved trail, a pedestrian overpass for hill training, stairs up to the overpass for conditioning, a pavilion, a shaded half mile of the Ream Wilson Trail, this spot is working well for track training.

Coach Deb’s track workouts are widely varied, including work on balance, form, agility, strength, conditioning, hill-running technique, and of course, for intermediate runners, traditional speedwork.
