Celebrating 23 Years of training!
They say there’s strength in numbers… and we couldn’t agree more! Training for the Allianz Partners Richmond Marathon can be a challenge, but doing it in a group setting with a crew of supportive coaches and teammates is sure to get you to the finish line.
Many of my running partners and close friendships have been developed as a result of MTT! It motivates me on weekends throughout the summer to stick to my plan which has resulted in me achieving many of my goals.

he teams, coaches, and information were all amazing and exactly what I was hoping when I signed up. This was my first year and I knew nobody going in, but came away with a bunch of new running friends and a lot more knowledge .
