FAQ

What is the typical length of training plans?

It depends on the experience of the person and what goals they have. Most plans range from 8-16 weeks but personal coaching is written on a week to week basis.

What if I want to change my plan mid-cycle?

There is no long term commitment so if you decide you want to stop or change at any time you don’t lose anything. If a goal race changes mid cycle that is not a problem to accommodate.

How do I know which plan is for me ?

If you feel like you need the extra support, accountability, and feedback of a coach then you want to go with month to month personal coaching. If you are looking for more of a training outline then I would choose an 8, 12, or 16 week plan.

Discounts on gear ?

We are proud to partner with Cadence Running Company, Queen Creek Company, and Triplex Training. We receive discounts with these local companies.

Where is Delancey loopers based ?

Delancey Loopers are based at the Delancey residence near the cross streets of Recker and Elliot.

What if I don't reside in Arizona ?

You can still receive coaching if you are not an Arizona resident. While face to face interaction is ideal, technology has cleared many barriers to help provide for a strong coach/athlete relationship online.
