This popular 11-Wk run development program is perfect for runners of all levels looking to build a robust running foundation during the fall before commencing a build to major marathon events in the spring.
The program is also perfect for triathletes who feel that the run discipline is a limiter and would like to use the fall to work on the run.
The program focuses on running form, strength, speed, and endurance. Athletes will learn to pace and measure progress with specific field testing. The program culminates with participants racing in one or two local run events 10k to 10M.
The fall is a beautiful time to be outside and to work on limiters and skills! Improve your running technique, endurance, and speed. Head into 2026 with a firm running foundation and readiness to train for future events.
Athletes typically compete in one of the following local events at the conclusion of the program:
- NYRR Joe Kleinerman 10K – Jan 10, 2026
- SRC Run to the Blue Point Brewery 10M – Jan 17, 2026
Group workouts (2 per week) plus additional solo run, strength and cross training workouts. Athletes will be professionally coached through a specific progression of drills, strength exercises, individual testing, and run workouts.

Note: * This program is a USAT sanctioned event. As such, additional USAT waiver fees will be assessed by USAT for NON USAT members. USAT Sanctioning 1) provides the gold standard of insurance protection for the program, athlete, and venue and; 2) delivers athletes peace of mind by ensuring industry wide safety standards. Startline Coaching recommends all athletes become USAT annual members rather than pay individual program USAT waiver fees.
A credit card processing fee of 3% will be assessed if a credit card is used for payment. Zelle payments are available without a processing fee. Additional $15 USAT one-day waiver fee(s) will be assessed at program check-in for all NON USAT members. No refunds are available for this program.
