Glenview Moms Train Runners For Marathons

A pair of Glenview moms have launched a marathon and half-marathon training company.

JoAnn Clemen and Betsy Noxon are basing Reach Your Peak Training out of the Glenview Park District’s Park Center, according to the Chicago Tribune. Already in its second season, the local company offers two off-site group practices per week, where runners work on speed and strength.

“Training for a marathon can be a scary feeling, and running with a group takes the guessing work out,” said Noxon, who ran her first marathon, the Chicago Marathon, in 2008. “We offer a road map to how you can reach the finish line and achieve other goals.”

The 16-week program is geared for intermediate to advanced runners who have some racing experience.
