The day after the marathon, we celebrated. No running involved this time, just good people and a well deserved celebration of everything we accomplished together. We also had a surprise guest, Rick Ross, reminding you that you’re your own boss.
PS: The last slide is something we talked about all season and I want each and every one of you to keep that message close as the days go by.
And thank you to @lululemon , the brand that powers everything we do.

Now that the New York City Marathon is a wrap, most of y’all can finally relax and chill a little. But the season’s not completely over, we still got runners participating in a few more races.
Just stay locked in with us on Coach & Coffey’s Substack as we keep coaching and pushing you from afar. Our in-person training might be done, but the journey doesn’t stop here and you already know, we got you.
Major congratulations once again to all our marathoners, y’all earned every bit of it.
And another huge shoutout and thank you to @lululemon , the brand that powers everything we do.

Congratulations Everyone, you did that! Whether it was your first, your fifth, your tenth or your twentieth, you earned every bit of that moment when you crossed the finish line. We know it wasn’t easy, but every step you took and every mile you ran was worth it, because you were running your own race on your own terms being your own boss.
Once again, CONGRATULATIONS. You should be proud knowing you really put in that work!
A huge shoutout and thank you to @lululemon , the brand that powers everything we do.

Today’s shakeout run might be our signal for the end of the 4th season, but tomorrow is when you’ll show yourself who you really are and what you’re made of. Go out there, have fun and dance your way through the course.
Good luck and we’ll be out there cheering for you every step of the way.
So stay 👉🏾Fired up! Ready to go!!

All fall marathon season, you’ve been rocking with us since day one and we truly appreciate you for that. The trust is real. The blood, sweat and tears we’ve all put in together have made us one.
These videos are from our final speed session last night, captured from a few different angles. The last clip shows our practice run before we shouted it out loud because as you know, greatness takes practice. And for 16 weeks, that’s exactly what you’ve been doing. You’re no longer amateurs, you’re professionals.
And just know, your name will always be connected to the noname program, always and forever. So from now ‘til you cross that finish line, stay fired up and ready to go.

Yesterday was our last long run, the final ten miles of the marathon and you all looked incredible out there. Before you took off, I was focused on making sure everyone knew I’m doing better after my recent incident and in the middle of that, I didn’t get the chance to properly say thank you for wearing pink and to explain why it mattered.
First, you looked amazing. But beyond that, during the month of October, we honor Breast Cancer Awareness in a very personal way every season. I lost my mother at a young age to the disease and Coach’s sister is a survivor. Thank GOD! But, when I first heard my mother had breast cancer, I didn’t understand what it was until it was too late. Since then, I’ve done everything I can to advocate and raise awareness in her name.
My running journey actually started because of her. When I run, it’s my time to talk to her again. She is my why. My mother was all about community. She taught me what community looked like without ever needing to say it. It was how she lived. Strangers becoming friends and friends becoming family. She’s also the reason Define New York Run Club and the noname program exist. And look, that’s us now. Family.
I also know each of us knows someone who’s passed, someone who’s surviving or someone who’s fighting right now. Let’s keep their stories alive and at the forefront. Let’s continue to have the conversations, to show up and to find ways, big or small, to make a real impact. Whether it’s through raising awareness, offering support or simply standing in solidarity with those fighting and surviving breast cancer. Trust me, it matters.
Thanks again and we’ll see you at our last speed session of the season to discuss your “WHY?”

Yesterday’s half felt easy compared to the first time we knocked out 13.1 together. All that hard training is paying off and now we’re just two weeks out from the big dance.

Yesterday’s 2 hour long run with 1:30 of it at marathon pace looked a little something like this.
And Congratulations to all our Chicago marathoners and good luck to our Toronto marathoners lining up next weekend.

Before our 20-miler yesterday, a lot of runners were stepping into new territory, their first time ever running that kind of distance. So we reminded everyone, “be patient with yourself when you’re becoming someone you’ve never been before.”
It was the longest run of this training block and y’all showed up strong. From the group stretch, to the surprise cheer zone and ice pops along that tough route, to the hugs, smiles and happy tears at the finish, it was all love. And just know, it’s okay to cry. Sometimes tears are just the heart saying what the mouth can’t in that moment.
Also, big shoutout to our runners heading to Chicago next weekend. You’re on deck. Good luck and kick that marathon a**.
🗣️ Can you dig it?

There was nothing fun about last night’s 4x bridge mile, but we got it done. Our friends @BridgeRunners would be happy to know we were running across both Manhattan and Williamsburg bridge getting it in.
