elitefeats Announces Free 16-Week Running Training Program for All Levels

elitefeats, a leader in Long Island’s racing community, today announced the launch of a 16-week comprehensive training program designed to help runners of all levels — from first-timers to seasoned competitors — reach their goals. The program, which will be offered free of charge thanks to a transformative donation of $360,000 from Westbury-based All Round Foods, led by Glen Wolther and Donna Rosen, will be formally unveiled during a press event at Eisenhower Park.

The training program, which includes the opportunity to train alongside Olympic Marathoner Jane Vongvorachoti, who participated in the 2016 Olympic Marathon, will deliver professional coaching, structured workouts, and resources to support personal growth and participation, regardless of pace or experience level.

The Program Meets at:

• JULY Wednesdays 6 PM, Cedar Creek Park Field 6, 3340 Merrick Rd. Seaford
• AUG-OCT Tuesdays 6 PM, Eisenhower Park Field 2, 1899 Park Blvd. East Meadow

Each practice features a group warm-up and a workout tailored to each individual.

“We are incredibly grateful to All Round Foods for their generosity and vision,” explained Brendan Dagan, co-founder of elitefeats. “Glen and Donna have a longtime dedication to Long Island’s running community, and their support is helping us break down barriers and expand access to running in a way that will change lives. This program is about empowering people to come together, grow, and achieve things they never thought possible.”

Glen Wolther, President of All Round Foods, added, “Running has brought people together and inspired countless communities. We wanted to help make that experience accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or financial means. It’s an honor to support elitefeats and invest in a healthier, stronger Long Island. I’ve committed this funding to help grow the running community on Long Island, with $120,000 already given to elitefeats.”

"I want to thank Glen Wolther and Donna Rosen for their incredible generosity in supporting this transformative program. Nassau County is always proud to support elitefeats and their efforts to engage our community through running,” said Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman. “It’s never too late to start training, and with the Long Island Marathon scheduled for May 1, 2, and 3, there’s an event for everyone. Whether you’re running in the 5K Night Race on Friday, the 10K or 1 Mile Fun Run on Saturday, or the Half and Full Marathon on Sunday, I encourage everyone to join in, start training today, and be part of this inspiring event."

Donna Rosen of All Round Foods echoed that sentiment, noting, “This is about giving back to the community that has supported us for so long. We believe in promoting wellness, inclusion, and a sense of belonging, and this program is the perfect way to do that.”

The sponsorship also provides direct financial support to running clubs across Long Island, helping these community organizations grow and fostering deeper community engagement. Additionally, it underwrites a partnership with HollarHype, giving all participants free access to the real-time voice app for motivation during workouts and races.

For over a decade, elitefeats has been dedicated to promoting local races and strengthening the Long Island running community. This partnership with All Round Foods represents one of the largest private investments ever made in the local running scene and underscores a shared commitment to expanding opportunities, building a healthier Long Island, and celebrating the spirit of community through running.
