One Coaching System. Multiple Paths.
You don’t need the same goal as everyone else to train together.
RunWalk Tulsa provides structured, year-round run-walk training for walkers, beginners, and experienced runners who want to train using the Run-Walk-Run® Method.
You may be training for your health.
You may want to become more consistent.
You may want to walk farther.
You may want to try run-walk training.
Or you may have a race on the calendar.
Your goal can be different. Your training can still happen together.
Choose the Training Path That Fits You
RunWalk Tulsa offers three primary ways to train: Walking Group, Year-Round Training, and Race Training.
The Jeff Galloway Run-Walk-Run® Method is integrated throughout our coaching system for members who use planned run-walk intervals.
You don’t have to decide where you’ll be six months from now. Choose the place that fits where you are today.
Walking Group
Walking-only training for adults who want walking to be their primary form of exercise.
Our Walking Group provides structured coaching, a supportive community and a training environment where you never have to run to belong.
A good fit for:
- Beginners
- Fitness walkers
- Adults returning to exercise
- People focused on health and wellness
- People who prefer walking
- Walkers who want structure and accountability
Walking is not a stepping stone you have to move beyond. It can be your training path.
Year-Round Training
Ongoing training for fitness, endurance and consistency—race optional.
Year-Round Training is the foundation of the RunWalk Tulsa program.
You don’t have to wait for a race-training season to begin. You can train throughout the year, build gradually and continue progressing from one training cycle to the next.
A good fit for:
- People who want consistent weekly training
- Walkers and Run-Walk-Run® participants without a specific race goal
- People building fitness and endurance
- Anyone who wants coaching and accountability year-round
- People who may eventually decide to train for a race
No race required. No season required. Just keep moving forward.
Race Training
Structured training for your next finish line.
When you have a specific race goal, your training can become more focused while still using the same RunWalk Tulsa coaching system.
We provide structured training for:
- 5Ks
- 10Ks
- 15Ks
- Half Marathons
- Marathons
- Ultramarathons
Race training builds on the same foundation of pace-based coaching, progressive training, Run-Walk-Run® training and long-term consistency.
You don’t have to be a traditional runner to train for a race.
One Program. Your Training Can Evolve.
Your goals don’t have to stay the same.
You might start by walking.
Then you might add running intervals.
Then a 5K starts to sound possible.
Maybe that becomes a 10K.
Maybe someday you decide to train for a half marathon.
Or maybe you discover that you simply enjoy becoming a stronger, healthier walker.
You can change your goal without having to change your training community.
That’s one of the advantages of year-round training.
What Makes RunWalk Tulsa Training Different?
RunWalk Tulsa isn’t simply a place to meet up and exercise.
Your workouts are structured and coached.
Depending on your training path and workout, your program may include:
- Pace-based training — Work at an appropriate pace for your current fitness.
- Run-Walk-Run® training — Planned walk breaks are incorporated into training rather than treated as a sign of failure.
- Magic Mile pace assessments — Use your current performance to help establish personalized training paces.
- Form drills — Improve movement efficiency and running/walking mechanics.
- Speed development — Build fitness without simply trying to go faster every day.
- Hill training — Develop strength and endurance.
- Long-distance endurance training — Gradually build the ability to go farther.
- Walking-only options — You never have to run to participate.
- Coach-led workouts — Know what you’re doing and why you’re doing it.
- Morning and evening workouts — Multiple opportunities to train during the week.
- Saturday endurance sessions — Build distance with your training community.
- Year-round progression — Keep building rather than starting over every season.
- Community accountability — Have people expecting to see you show up.
The Run-Walk-Run® Method Is Part of the System
RunWalk Tulsa is Oklahoma’s official Jeff Galloway Run-Walk-Run® Training Program.
The Run-Walk-Run® Method uses planned walking intervals as part of the training strategy.
Rather than waiting until you’re exhausted before walking, walk breaks are planned into the workout from the beginning.
The method can be used by beginners, walkers, experienced runners, and athletes training for longer distances. If you’re already a runner, you can incorporate planned walk breaks into your training rather than having to give up the running experience you already have.
