The trails are calling this summer, and Fleet Feet Folsom Roseville has a Trail Training Program to help you get out there! The Blood, Sweat and Beers program has experienced coaches, a goal-based training schedule, and weekly runs that will introduce you to many different local trailheads in a safe group setting. We will share information on the important components of trail running, fueling, and hydration for the demands of the trail…it’s different than on the road!

This program is meant for anyone from the beginning runner to the experienced runner who may just want to escape the pounding of the pavement and focus on softer terrain and beautiful scenery.

The training will prepare you for the Blood, Sweat and Beers Trail Run (Long Course - 10.5 miles) on July 20, 2025.

Kick-Off Informational Meeting

Not sure if Trail Training is for you? All are welcome to meet the coaches on Saturday, June 1st at 7:30am at Fleet Feet Folsom for a kickoff and ice breaker run.

Weekly Workouts

June 1st to July 17th
Wednesday 6pm in Folsom and Granite Bay
Sundays 7:30am at various locations in the Auburn, Granite Bay and Folsom area

NOTE: Parking at many of our Sunday run locations are at State Parks and are paid parking areas. You can purchase a day pass or purchase a Poppy Pass, which we highly recommend for the convenience and for your future trail exploration. Finding a friend to carpool with is more fun and economical!

Goal Race

We will prepare you for the Blood, Sweat and Beers Trail Run (Long Course - 10.5 miles). Race Day is Sunday, July 20th.

Training Schedule

The training is designed to increase week to week so you build slowly, steadily, and consistently towards your goals. The Wednesday workouts consist of intensity such as intervals, hills, and tempo to improve your fitness. The Sunday workouts are endurance building towards your goal race distance of 10.5 miles. Your training schedule will include workouts for you to do on your own throughout the week which will help you see more progress. If you can’t make a workout, you will have the schedule to continue to follow the plan.

Education

Coaches and special guests will educate you in person and via email and our private Strava club on topics such as trail safety, mobility, nutrition/hydration, how to prepare for race day, injury prevention, and more. They are also a resource and support for you along the way.

Group Training Atmosphere

Enjoy the safety, accountability, information, and motivation that come from a coached group workout environment. We also have a private Strava Club for you to share, communicate, and get motivation from your fellow training members.
