Good questions

Can we try it first?+

Yes. Ask a coach below and pick "Free trial week". A coach will set your athlete up for a free first week.

My kid runs school cross country. Is this for them?+

Yes. School XC runners train with our distance group, and the extended season keeps them racing after the last school meet.

What ages?+

Ages 7 to 17. Practices are grouped by ability, so a first-timer and a varsity runner both get the right workout.

What if cost is a problem?+

Ask a coach below and pick "Scholarship". We want every kid on the team.

How do we book practices?+

In the Without Limits app. Sign in with the email you join with, and your athlete is already there.

Does it auto-renew?+

Only if you choose it. One month and prepaid plans are paid once and never renew. Auto-renew plans say so, and you can cancel any time from your account.

Ask a coach

Questions first?

Want a free trial week, need a scholarship, or just want to talk it through? Send it here. It goes straight to the youth coaches.
