Testimonials from past participants

"The personalized race paces and workouts. The awesome group runs and particularly the addition of morning interval
workouts. Very supportive coaching staff who made themselves available for questions and help."

"This was not my first marathon but it was the first time I followed specific training workouts, recovery runs, and long runs based off a goal time. I felt that my plan was individualized based off my background and fitness level prior to training. This left me feeling confident going into race day because I had followed "the plan" that I know has worked for so many others."

"I wanted to BQ and had not run a full marathon in several years. This program designed for my goal got me 10 minutes
under my BQ time and a PR by 2 minutes..and I was 12 years older. My race was Indy Monumental and finish time
was 4:15:01."

"Chicago was my first marathon and I came into it not knowing what to expect. When I signed up for the lottery and was
awarded a spot for Chicago I had planned training on my own which would most likely not prepared me the way Extra
Mile did. The training program was about 2 weeks in and I didn't have the "base" that most of the runners had that were beginning this program but she tailored it to where Iwas and where I needed to be on race day. I could not have asked for better coaches! They were knowledgeable, informative, motivating, and good-hearted. I've heard that the hardest part of a marathon was the training but that was one of the best parts with this group. I looked forward to every single session with the coaches and fellow runners which I had all just met basically. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life and and I wouldn't change a thing with the program from my perspective."
