You, Running Superstar in the Making
So, you’ve decided to channel your inner marathoner. Or maybe you just want to run without wheezing after 30 seconds. Either way, Fast Break is here to help you level up—whether your goal is crushing the Erlanger Chattanooga Marathon this March or just making it to the mailbox without questioning your life choices.

Let’s break down how our stellar programs, scientifically-backed testing, and expert product lineup can transform you from casual jogger to full-blown running legend (or at least someone who feels good about their training).

1. Track Nights: Where Dreams and Sweat Collide. Think you can’t be an elite runner? Think again. At Track Nights, we’ve got an actual coach (yes, someone who knows what they’re doing, not your buddy who googled "best running tips" once). These weekly sessions take place at the newly resurfaced Girls Preparatory School track, where you’ll learn how to fine-tune your form, pace, and endurance under professional guidance. Think of it as the Hogwarts of running… minus the wands and flying brooms.

You’ll not only see results but also realize running can be… dare we say it… fun? If nothing else, you’ll leave knowing what phrases like “negative splits” mean, so you can impress your non-running friends at brunch.
Sign up for Track Nights here. Go on, it’ll hurt—but in a good way.

2. Performance Testing: The Science-y Way to Get Faster. Want to geek out on data while also becoming a better runner? Welcome to our performance testing, done in collaboration with the brainiacs at UTC’s Health and Human Performance Department. This is where we strap you to machines, measure your VO2 max, lactate threshold, and resting metabolic rate, and give you results that sound super impressive when dropped casually into conversation (“Oh, my VO2 max? It’s 55, what about yours?”).

The best part? These results actually matter. You can use them to create a personalized training plan that’s tailored to your unique physiology, so you’re not just running aimlessly but training smart. If science had a fan club, we’d be the first to sign up. Check it out here.

3. Weekly Group Runs: Because Misery Loves Company. Running solo is fine… until it isn’t. Enter our weekly group runs, where you can meet fellow runners who are also chasing their goals (and sometimes just chasing each other). These runs are a mix of training, camaraderie, and the occasional awkward conversation about foam rolling techniques.

Hosted on Strava, these group runs are perfect for anyone needing a little extra motivation to get out the door. Plus, when someone else is suffering alongside you, it’s weirdly comforting. Join us—you’ll leave with sore legs and maybe even a new running buddy.

4. New Product Launches: The Cool Gear You Didn’t Know You Needed. The start of the year is like Christmas 2.0 for runners, with all the latest footwear and gear hitting the shelves. At Fast Break, we’re not just here to sell you shoes—we’re here to find you the shoe. Our expert staff analyzes your gait, goals, and foot type to recommend the perfect fit. No more buying random sneakers because they look cool and then wondering why your feet hate you.

Whether you’re after maximum cushioning, speed, or a shoe that just gets you, we’ve got it. Plus, there’s nothing like the feeling of breaking in fresh kicks on a long run (or a quick trip to the fridge… no judgment).

Let’s Get You Running. Whether you’re gearing up for the Erlanger Chattanooga Marathon or just want to outrun your neighbor’s dog, Fast Break has everything you need. From expert coaching to high-tech performance testing, community runs, and top-tier gear, we’re here to make your running dreams a reality.

So, what are you waiting for? Come see us, join a program, or just pop in to say hi. Either way, we’ll help you become the runner you’ve always wanted to be… or at least someone who doesn’t dread the first mile.
