Capital City Half Marathon Training
Presented by Panera Bread
Are you running the Capital City Half Marathon Presented By KeyBank for the first time? Are you a veteran runner looking to set a new PR? Moving up from a 5K to the Patrón Quarter Marathon? Or are you making the Commit To Be Fit 5K your first race?
No matter your goal or experience level, the Capital City Half Marathon has a team of coaches — including running coach Aimee Price and lifestyle coach Julie Wilkes — who will get you to the starting line and the Byers Xtra Mile Finish Line Party!
And, new in 2012, the Capital City Half Marathon is proud to announce that we have partnered with Panera Bread to offer the Cap City Official Training Menu.
Visit a Panera Bread location in Central Ohio for breakfast, lunch or dinner and you will find a choice of menu items that will perfectly complement your half marathon, quarter marathon or 5K training. The items all offer a healthy combination of whole grains, carbohydrates and protein and are low in sugar, sodium and fat.
In addition to getting you ready to run or walk on May 5, Panera Bread will also have its food items featured in the Champions Celebration Lounge at the Health & Fitness Expo Party on May 3–4 at Battelle Grand and be the official caterer for the Cap City VIP Experience on Saturday, May 5.
Panera Bread is also the official sponsor of the Capital Kids Be A Champion Youth Training Program, which encourages youth at Columbus Recreation Centers and the Capital Kids after-school program to run or walk 13.1 miles in the weeks before the Capital City Half Marathon. Those who complete the program then walk the final 0.1 mile on race day with Mayor Michael B. Coleman and receive an official Cap City Bicentennial Edition finisher's medal.
