INTERNATIONAL FAST NYC - Level 1 *18 Week Plan* (kilometers)

*WORKOUTS IN THIS VERSION ARE WRITTEN IN KILOMETERS

Let's make this year's NYC Marathon your fastest marathon yet! FAST NYC is a special, 18 week edition of FAST MARATHON - training you specifically for the challenges of the NYC course so you’re ready to run fast & strong!

The BEST marathon training plan: speed workouts, quality long runs with fast finishes & recovery built in so that you get faster & stronger. This is everything that has helped us (Kim & Tyler) take 5 HOURS off our marathon times!

Our plan brings to you ALL of our marathon experience in our 26+ combined marathons. We want to show you that a FASTER marathon is possible without overloading yourself & with recovery as a priority. It’s a conservative approach with a focus on HIGH quality, marathon specific workouts that will challenge you and get you fit, strong, and ready to run a breakthrough race. Our FAST MARATHON athletes consistently tell us they feel strong throughout the whole marathon & even run the last few miles the fastest.

Level 1 is for you, if:

• You are a first time marathoner or looking to improve upon your first time.
• You have a goal to complete the distance, or push for a little more.
