THE OFFICIAL TRAINING PROGRAM OF THE MERCY HEALTH GLASS CITY MARATHON

Dave's Spring In-Training Program offers personal coaching with a training plan designed to help you reach your goal. All plans start on Monday, January 5th, 2026. The Mercy Health Glass City Marathon, Half-Marathon, and Savage 5K will be the target events for all the programs. Each program has different pace groups to meet individual needs and dedicated coaches to assist each group. Join hundreds of other runners who enjoy Training the Dave's Way!

TRAINING TILT PLATFORM FOR EVERYONE

The Training Tilt app is such a fantastic tool for remote trainers that Dave's is now including the app as an option for anyone in the program as another training resource. One of the most useful features in the Training Tilt app is the interactive training calendar, where you can sync your Strava account or Garmin device.

The Dave's REMOTE TRAINERS will receive weekly coaching advice and encouragement from Dave's Training Team through the Training Tilt Platform.

BEGINNER HALF-MARATHON & 5K PROGRAMS

If you're aiming to complete your first half-marathon or 5K, Dave's Running Shop will help you reach the finish line with a detailed, 16-week training plan tailored for the Glass City Half-Marathon/Savage 5K. This plan gradually increases your mileage and helps you adapt to longer runs step by step, so you're prepared to handle the half-marathon or 5K on race day.

Before the start of the training program, you will receive a welcome email regarding the logistics. Best of luck and thanks for allowing Dave's Running Shop the opportunity to coach you.

11th Annual Hot Cocoa Race sponsored by Sylvania Prevention Alliance

A great family event that will help chase away the winter blues!

Our Hot Cocoa 10K/5K/1Mile Race is being held in partnership with Olander Park. The race starts at 9am and there will be multiple corals for a safe start. In addition to the 5K and 10K, we are having a 1 mile race for our elementary age runners.

The 1 Mile Race or Walk will be the 1 mile loop around Olander Lake. We are offering a 1 mile timed race for kids and a 1 mile timed event for adults. (Whether you race or walk, you will get a time) The 1 mile course will stay in Olander park and go around the beautiful lake.

The 5K Race will start at the Nederhouser Community Building, run south on the trail, exit out of Olander Park, cross Sylvania Ave into Farmbrook neighborhood, run onto the university parks trail to McCord Rd, head north on McCord to Sylvania Ave to Olander, and then circle the lake to finish in Olander Park at the Neiderhouser. The 10K will follow the same course, but continue onto the University Parks trail, before coming back to the 5K course to finish. The courses are open to traffic and not a closed course. (Maps will be provided online and at packet pick-up)

Proceeds will go toward our youth programs for promoting positive, healthy lifestyle choices and the prevention of drug, alcohol use and other at-risk behaviors in our community. Sylvania Prevention Alliance provides programs that offer guidance and education and sponsors positive events that develop leadership and team building skills.

Hot Cocoa and grab and go snacks will be available after the race finish.

Age group awards will be awarded after the conclusion of the races.

After February 4th, there will be no shirt guarantee and early bird pricing will end!!!

The 5K course will be run in Olander Park (3ish loops). The finish/start line will be located at the Nederhouser Community Hall where a brief post race club meeting will be held. This year we will be back to the usual feeding frenzy meal and refreshments!

The run will be time graded with a staggered start. Slower runners will start first followed by faster runners grouped according to previous times. Theoretically, runners will finish at approximately the same time. Each runner will be required to state their best 5K time from the preceding 2 years (approximately May 2024 through May 2026). In the event you haven’t raced a 5K in the last year, figure out a pace from a previous race at any distance and convert using a standard race time conversion chart. The clock will start at 6:30 around 48 minutes and count down. Planning to run in 26 minutes? Start at 26:00! Planning to run in 19 minutes? Start at 19:00! There will be no age group or sex division awards. This is a fun run. Come for the Frantic Finish!

Price for TRRC members is $12.00. Price for non-members is $18.00. Additional $2.00 discount per participant for families of three or more. Discounts are taken during payment. If you need to pay by check, please reach out to the race director at least 10 days before race day.

Race day entry will be available until 10:00am on May 19th. All entries must be done through RunSignup. NO REGISTRATIONS, cash, or checks will accepted that evening.
