Main Street Half Marathon

Main Street Half Marathon There was a time when running a race was about the real people involved and the towns that hosted and cheered them on. We think it’s time to reunite.

The Main Street race series is produced by Main Street Marathon, LLC a subsidiary of Pro-Activity Registration open at https://www.mainstreetmarathon.com/

Week 8: Recovery Nutrition
Welcome to Week 8 of our half marathon training! 3 runs are on the docket.

🔑Key Workout on Saturday: 6 Miles (Moderate Pace)

⛽Tip Focus: Post-run refueling and recovery windows.

🧘‍♀️Recovery begins as soon as your run ends! Aim to consume a mix of carbohydrates and protein at a 3-4:1 ratio within 30 to 45 minutes after finishing. A smoothie or light meal will refuel depleted glycogen and kickstart muscle repair.

⬆Intermediate Modifier: Bump Tuesday’s easy run to 4 miles and add a 3-mile recovery run on Sunday.

Join BaseCamp Athletic Club for their group run on Saturday at 8AM to help get through the miles!

This Labor Day, we celebrate the American spirit that was built on hard work—the determination to show up, put in the miles, and keep moving forward.

That spirit lives in every long-distance runner, too. In the early mornings. The long runs. The tired legs. The miles no one sees. The choice to keep going when the finish line still feels far away.

The Main Street Half Marathon of Hunterdon + Four Miler is a celebration of that spirit: the grit, perseverance, and pride that remind us that meaningful things are built one mile, one step, one day at a time.

Here’s to the workers who built America, and to every runner who knows what it means to put in the work.

Happy Labor Day. 🇺🇸🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Week 7: Dress Rehearsal & Gear Check

Welcome to Week 7 of our half marathon training! We're in the second half of our 12 week block and 3 runs are on the docket.

🔑Key Workout on Saturday: 9 Miles (1.5wu, 7t, 1.5cd)

💰Tip Focus: Test race-day shoes, outfit, anti-chafe products and fuel strategies.

🎭Treat today like a dress rehearsal. Wear the exact shoes, socks, and outfit you plan to use on race day, and apply anti-chafe balm where needed. Use your planned race day hyrdration and nutrition strategies. If anything rubs, causes blisters or any nutrition/hydration strategies feel off today, you have plenty of time to tweak your setup before the big race.

⬆Intermediate Modifier: Extend Saturday's run to 10 miles total (add 1 mile to the warmup or cooldown).

Week 6: The Cutback Week
Welcome to Week 6 of our half marathon training! 3 runs are on the docket.

Key Workout on Saturday: 4.5 Miles (EASY)

Tip Focus: Resting and absorbing previous training.

Embrace the cutback week! Lower mileage allows your body time to absorb hard work, rebuild muscle tissue, and prevent injury. Resist the urge to run faster just because the distance is shorter—keep it strictly easy.

Intermediate Modifier: Keep Saturday easy, but add a 3-mile easy recovery run on Sunday or cross-train.

Join the club at Basecamp on Saturdays at 8:00AM for group run fun!

FINAL REMINDER: Price Increase happening at Midnight. If you've been doing this training but haven't signed up, now's a good time to commit!
