Questions about the training...
- Can I still join Regal Inline Training?
The first 3 classes are geared toward techinical skills and improving efficiency.
Missing these classes will diminish the value to you; therefore we do not allow
new registrations after the 3rd class.
[top]
- I'm not registered. Do you allow drop-ins?
Regal Inline does not have a drop-in program. Our all-inclusive membership covers
our seminars, coaching, and training session. However, private lessons or individual
group lessons are available year around.
[top]
- What is Regal Inline Training?
Regal Inline Training is an inline skate training program that prepares members for inline
marathons and half-marathons. Our members are beginners as well as experienced
skaters - anyone interested in skating in either marathon is welcome.
[top]
- Who should join?
Regal Inline Training is perfect for anyone who has a desire to challenge themselves,
wants to exercise and make new friends, wants to increase their body strength and
stamina, wants to look and feel better, or simply wants to get involved in a healthy
lifestyle sport - inline skating. Whether you are an experienced skater or relatively
new, this program has something to offer you!
[top]
- When are the Regal Inline Training programs?
We have two training sessions per year with more on the way. The summer session
prepares skaters for a major fall race and the winter session will prepare skaters
for the Texas Road Rash Inline Marathon.
[top]
- Where is the training?
We are meeting at the Akins High School located at 10701 S. 1st Street. We meet in
the parking lot behind the school near the tennis courts. After the first
3 weeks of techinical training, we will move to the Veloway for the remainder of
the workouts.
Feel free to contact us for directions.
- I'm new to skating. Can I participate?
Regal Inline welcomes those new to skating and is designed especially for you. Please make sure that you have your
own skates, helmet, wristguards (and other protective gear is strongly encouraged) and come
train with us. Our Orange group will help you to develop your skating skills and get
you ready for the marathon of your choice.
If you have never been on skates; it is recommended to have a private lesson and
let us evaluate your ability to complete the marathon trainging program.
[top]
- I'm an experienced skater. Is there anything in this for
me?
There's a place for experienced skaters at Regal Inline Training! Each training plan is
geared toward your needs, and a chance to meet new training buddies. Our coaches
can get you in racing shape in no time and get you ready for the inline
marathon of your choice.
[top]
- What are the two color groups and which will I be in?
Our two color groups are Orange and Yellow. Orange group skaters are those who are new to
skating or aren't quite as comfortable on skates as they would like to be.
Yellow
group skaters are those who are already comfortable with skating and not worried
about falling. Your coach can help you determine what group you will skate with.
The program is not designed for skaters that have never been on skates. You
can contact us for individual lessons.
[top]
- What are the weekly seminars?
Each weekend, after our skate, we'll do a review and then have a brief discussion
on the topic of the week.
Topics will all be health and fitness related, and will be led by knowledgeable professionals and/or your coaches.
[top]
- What happens on any given Saturday?
We will meet and break off into our color groups, orange or yellow for our skate. After
the skate, we will have our seminar. After that, the coaches will be available for
any questions or discussions.
[top]
- You must be kidding. All this for $165?
No, we're not kidding. This is less than $12 a week for great coaching, fun exercise
and lots of goodies.
[top]

Check Schedule page for details.
Remember, you can also sign-up online.
- Where are the in-person sign-up sessions?
Our sign-up sessions will be at the same location as our weekly meetings.
We meet at 7:30am at the rear parking lot at Akins High School, located at
10701 S. 1st Street. We meet in the parking lot behind the school.
[top]
- Can I pay with a credit card?
Yes, we allow payment via credit card if you sign-up online.
If you prefer to pay by cash or check, please register in person at the Informational
Session or the first three training days. Please note that if you wish to pay by credit card, you must sign-up online.
- I can't make it to the first weekend -- should I still sign up?
Yes, you should still sign up! Each training session will be filled with technical
skills and conditioning, but you can still sign up until the 3rd week. We also have
our Coaches ready to answer
any questions you have from the previous week (and any seminars that you miss during
the season).
[top]
- Does entry into Regal Inline include entry into the Texas Road Rash Inline Marathons?
No, your payment to Regal Inline Training only covers the cost of your participation in the
training program. We will provide information about how to sign up
for the Texas Road Rash Inline Marathon or other marathons we are training for.
[top]
- How much training does this program involve?
Realizing that most people lead very busy lives, this program is one that can easily
fit into your schedule. For the most part, the program calls for training only 4-5
days a week. Your long skate session will usually take place on Saturday with your
group. The day after your long skate is always a rest day.
[top]
- Do I have to be there every week?
No, many members are unable to make every weekend session. The weekend seminars
are important, but you can always ask your coach or skating buddies about what you
missed. However, those long group skates are a lot easier and more fun when you're
doing them with the group! And in our experience, the success of our members is
directly proportional to their ability to attend our weekend training sessions and
seminars.
