The YMCA of Greater Springfield Wellness Collective is an employee initiative created to bring YGS employees together through movement, connection, and shared experiences—both inside and outside the Y.
This is about showing up as us: cheering each other on, trying new things, and representing the Y in the community as a team committed to wellness in all its forms. Whether you’re a seasoned runner, a casual walker, or just in it for the camaraderie, the Wellness Collective is for you.
We’ll participate in community events, celebrate milestones together, and proudly wear our Wellness Collective gear along the way. (Yes—merch will soon be available!)

Training Together!
To support everyone who wants to participate, we wanted to share some training schedule tips, injury prevention information, and a tracker.
You can follow the plan closely, adapt it to your needs, or simply use it as inspiration—this is about progress, not pressure.
