The Freihofer's Run For Women may still be a few months away, but officials have announced a new initiative to help people get ready for the race.
Starting next month, the Capital Region YMCA will be offering the Freihofer's Training Challenge to help runners reach their goals. Anyone who signs up will get a 12-week YMCA membership that's valid at several locations in the area. Registration for the 44th annual race is already open, and it's scheduled to take place on June 4th in downtown Albany.
