With the exception of a few weeks mid summer,  for the last three years our weeks look something like this.

bulletPreparing the group training plan for the upcoming weekend. Start preparing weekly Coaches Comm to the peeps. In the coaches comm we give tips and guiding information. We start at the beginning and then increase to the more advanced stages of training. The peeps train to Run or Walk a Full (26.2) or a Half (13.1) mile endurance event.
bulletDaily answer to participants questions via email or telephone
bulletOrganize clinics where experts in their field give advice to the participants. Clinics we hold are for , The principles of training, Nutrition, Injury prevention, Stretching, and Mental Preparation for the event.
bulletFriday Night is reserved for Gatorade and PBJ preparation. We get the supplies ready for the next days course. As an added bonus we have found that our peeps love animal crackers. They say the lions are the best for strength and endurance! HA!
bulletSaturday Mornings we are usually an up at 4:30 and get ready for the day and then head to the scheduled course for that weekend. We set out the supplies and meet the peeps by around 6:00 - 6:30 am. We usually finish around 12:00 after we clean up and care for the back of the packers.
bulletDuring the group training we monitor and give advice to the participants and cruise the course in a vehicle "just in case" someone gets in trouble. We take this  responsibility VERY seriously. Michele spends more time on the road running with the peeps. Barry has perfected herding the peeps with with the vehicle and "saying you are looking good!"
