ARMY TEN-MILER NEWS RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DATE:  March 27, 2007

JEFF GALLOWAY AND ARMY TEN-MILER TEAM UP AGAIN ON TRAINING PROGRAM

WASHINGTON, DC - With the opening of registration fast approaching this Monday, April 2, it's time to start thinking about training for the 23rd running of the Army's annual race. After a successful start in 2006, the Army Ten-Miler has once again partnered with Jeff Galloway Training to bring its registrants specialized training programs to help runners of all abilities achieve their goals.

Army Ten-Miler runners can choose between an online virtual training program and a DC-based on-site training program in which participants meet weekly to run together. Both programs start on July 23 and span ten weeks.  Each participant will receive personal communication with Jeff Galloway training leaders, a training schedule, Galloway's Book on Running, and more.

Additional information on Jeff Galloway's Army Ten-Miler training can be found on the Training Page on www.armytenmiler.com. Upon registration for the 2007 race, runners will receive a link with information on how to join in their confirmation e-mails.

"I was amazed at the success of our Army Ten-Miler training program last year - I heard from hundreds who used it effectively. With our program you can get off the couch and finish the ATM or potentially improve your time. Galloway and the Army Ten-Miler are working together to improve the quality of life through fitness," commented Jeff Galloway.

This is what 2006 Army Ten-Miler runners thought about the Jeff Galloway training program:  "It was a fantastic experience for me as I ran the Army Ten-Miler for the very first time. I can't wait to sign up for the 2007 race. I am going to work on cutting my time. Thank you for everything," said one Army runner.  A couple that trained together stated, "We really enjoyed the training as well as the race!!  I think we did OK considering this was our first 10 mile.  Thanks again for training us and we look forward to the 2007

Army Ten-Miler!"
