What is a Pace Group Leader?
A Pace Group Leader (PGL) is the most valuable resource to our training program participants. As an "on-the-road" guide, support crew, and pacer, PGL's are critial to each Pace Group during group training runs. Pace Groups are split into thirty second increments, for example 8:00 - 8:30 Pace Group, and each Pace Group has at least one and in some cases two Pace Group Leaders. Each training location has Pace Group Leaders for every pace group.
