Joined BIT in 2015 Seven or eight years ago I started running for fun and stress relief. After running a few 5ks, 10ks, 15ks, half marathons and one marathon (over the course of 4 years) I figured I had reached all I could do as a runner. Prior to BIT, my training consisted of just putting miles under my feet. Then a friend told me about BIT training. The three years I have been with this group and I have PR’d in various races every year. The knowledge the coaches and teammates share makes you a stronger, faster and smarter runner. The best part is that you can be at any level and they will design a training program for your goal and there will be a group for you to run with at that level. I am very excited to see what the 2018 BIT season brings! |

My experience with Bayshore in Training has been amazing, the past two years I’ve taken advantage of going to college in Traverse City and training for the Bayshore half-marathon and 10k races with a team of great people. I’ve been lucky enough to have Diane and Alison as my cross country and track coaches sense freshman year of high school. They’ve taught me everything I know about running and gotten me addicted to it. After graduating, my bucket list of races grew and I decided to join BIT to continue my training. I convinced my boyfriend to join me and we both had a great time meeting new people and accomplishing our first half-marathon together as well as a handful of other races. Alison and Diane Goss have perfected this training program with an 18 week schedule. They will work to modify bits and pieces to fit each individual and help by holding teaching sessions to correct running form and prevent injuries from occurring. The people you meet in this group will become your team, with each hill course, speed workout, and long run, it helps to have a team cheering you on especially when you’re dying while running up Wayne Hill! |
