I can’t wait to welcome you inside the team room and help you as you chase your goals. There are just a few steps left before you are off and running with your new plan.

BOOKMARK THIS PAGE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

YOU MUST UNLOCK YOUR MEMBERSHIP before you can set up your plan.

(Note: The unlock button only works once so after you unlock your plan, you can simply login via the Run Team button at the top of the McMillanRunning.com site.)

If you haven’t already (and make sure you check your spam folder), you should have received a separate email that looks like the image below.

This email will come from notifications@finalsurge.com so make sure to mark notifications@finalsurge.com as a safe sender in your email program. 

Once you unlock your Run Team membership, you’ll land on the training plan recommendation tool page. (see sample below).

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT

1) If you have a race within the next 3-4 months, just input your information and I’ll recommend the plan for you. Simple as that.

2) If your goal race isn’t in the near future, you’ll see my non-race plans at the bottom of the recommended plan page. There is a row of big orange buttons with my preparatory plans. Read this quick guide and it will show you which plans to use (and their order) as you build toward a future race plan.

In the Run Team, your training plans will have your McMillan training paces integrated so just enter your goal time and current fitness and all your paces will automatically added to the program (and they will advance across your plan).  

If you run into issues, there is a big button at the bottom “Schedule Chat with Greg” to click. That will sent a note directly to me and I can help you get your plan set up.

The training plan system has lots of features so I’ve put together this quick video walk through where I’ll show you some of the features to help you get started. Just click the link below to view the video.

If you ever need help, just click the HELP Me button below.

And more importantly, if you ever run into issues, just contact me. I’m here to help.I’ll follow up with another email shortly to explain some more about the training plan and Run Team features, but I just wanted to send this quick note to welcome you to the McMillan Run Team.

P.S. I almost forgot. You can also download the FREE Final Surge app from the Apple app store or Google Play and access your McMillan Run Team and training plan that way as well.

P.P.S. When you joined Run Team, you created two usernames and passwords. One is for the general McMillan Running website (where you’ll get your prehab routines) and the other is your McMillan Run Team Final Surge account (where you’ll access your plan, the webinars, etc.). Most runners use the same username and password for both, but if you ever run into trouble getting logged in to your training plan or your prehab videos, just let me know. I’m here to help.
