Women’s Training Program

If you’re looking for support, structure, and a strong community of women to help you reach your distance-running goals, sign up today for the free 2026 Women’s Training Program.

What You Need to Know:

• This is a free, women-led 20-week training program designed to support women, and those who identify as women, to prepare for the 2026 Servus Calgary Marathon.

• You’ll train toward the Servus Credit Union 42.2 km or Centaur Subaru 21.1 km, taking place Sunday, May 24.

• The program begins January 5 with a four-week foundations phase focused on movement, mindset, and goal-setting.

• After the foundations phase, participants follow a 16-week structured training plan, with beginner and intermediate options.

• You’ll receive access to a private online group for community support, updates, and discussion.

• Weekly content—pre-recorded and sometimes live—will be delivered by local female coaches and experts covering: nutrition, safety, (peri)menopause, recovery and so much more!

What’s In It For You:

• A supportive, empowering community designed specifically for women runners.

• Access to a free, comprehensive 20-week training program to help you reach your half marathon or full marathon race goals, beginner and intermediate options available.

• Weekly guidance and educational support from women’s health and performance experts, including virtual calls with guest speakers who share real-world insights to keep you motivated and informed as you train.

• Invites to monthly in-person meet-ups throughout Calgary to connect with others in the program.

• Access to a private online group and guidance on topics that matter most to women runners.

• Motivation, accountability, and a space to learn alongside women with similar goals and experiences.

• A stronger foundation in wellness, training strategy, and overall readiness for race day.

Why It Matters:

When women see themselves represented in the running space - and train alongside others who share their goals, pace, and life stage - something powerful happens. Confidence builds. Community forms. And what once felt uncertain becomes achievable.

Join us this winter and be part of the movement toward more women standing confidently on the start line.
