2011 Salomon Flight Crew Trail Clinics for 5 Peaks

Welcome and Congratulations!

If you've reached this page I would say you're more than just curious. You're either thinking you would like some guidance in trying something new or you are ready to take the next step with your running and fitness goals.

If I am right, you've come to the right place. We've revamped our clinics for 2011 so they are not repetitive for runners, but rather progressive. Each of the 10 clinics touches on a new topic related to training and racing on trails. As indicated on the 5 Peaks site, topics include footwork on technical trails, hill climbing, descending, race course strategy, the basics of race day preparation, training and racing recovery, and all while learning new trails with knowledgeable guides.

Given that we only meet face to face 10 times to work on technical skills, we are excited to provide you with a personalized training program that works for you, your goals, and your busy life.

The first 5 Peaks race at Golden Ears is on April 23rd so we'll plan to have our first meeting in mid-March. Trail running experience is not expected or required, but it will certainly be an asset to have some running experience and be able to run a minimum of 40 minutes.

The dates below indicate what your busy trail running summer will look like. We would love to have you aboard so please take a moment to fill out the registration form provided on the 5 Peaks site.

If you've stumbled across this page on your own and not through the 5 Peaks site you are likely wondering about pricing. We are able to offer two packages:

Clinic Package A - $160. This package will get you all 10 training sessions and access to your online Salomon Flight Crew trail coach.

Clinic Package B - $270
. This package includes your 10 clinics, but also includes the fees for all five races in the 5 Peaks series and a technical trail running t-shirt. (This package basically means you get $5 off each race, one free race, $4 off each clinic, and a t-shirt) This is a $385 package. GREAT SAVINGS!


Looking forward to another season of training and racing with a great crew of passionate, goal-oriented runners.

Any concerns, wonders, or other please contact us at flightcrewclinics@hotmail.com

*Note: These clinics require a minimum of 10 runners to be a go. If you're interested, get your friends signed up too. Of course money will be refunded should the turnout be low.
