Race Team
Our Race Team welcomes runners of all paces and experience levels, from first 5Ks to ultramarathons. USATF-certified coaching supports Grandma’s Marathon, the Mankato Marathon, any race goal, or simply running for fun.
Join a supportive, close-knit community that trains together and celebrates progress. Team size is limited so each runner gets personalized support and feels welcome.
More Than Just Racing!
You don’t have to race to join. Whether you’re here for fitness, fun, or community, the RVR Race Team is for you.
Membership also includes additional benefits to support your running journey:
-
Personalized plans delivered through TrainingPeaks, with workouts planned in advance and communication through email and our private Facebook group. Plans are structured in four 4-week cycles to help you progress safely and confidently.
-
Join us Wednesdays at 6 PM for coached group runs that include guidance, tips, and changing locations shared each week.
-
Five supported long runs in both spring and fall, with planned routes, water, and fuel provided. All paces and distances welcome.
-
Exclusive discounts on Mankato Marathon and select local races, plus 10% off most in-store purchases (some exclusions apply).
-
Access to our exclusive Pactimo team store will open three times in 2026. Members receive a promo code for a free tee or singlet, with options to purchase more gear.
-
Celebrate twice a year with team get-togethers, plus plenty of informal runs organized through our Facebook group—sometimes followed by coffee or brunch.
