If you aren’t training for a marathon yet, you need to be building your base.

Distance runners will see tremendous improvement in their performances through gradually increasing their weekly mileage. 

Those training less than 40 miles per week will see the most improvement in their running by simply running more and doing it safely.

When you follow the Knighton Runs 12-Week Base Building Training Program, you will gradually increase your number of days and miles you run each week. You’ll also learn basic speed workouts that will prepare you for what comes next.

By the end of the plan you will be running up to 6-days per week, 20 to 40 miles total per week, and have a solid foundation to take on a more intense event-specific training plan, like my Complete Marathon Training Program.

Confidently Chase After Your Dreams

My training programs have helped hundreds of athletes confidently chase after their dreams.

My Base Building Training Program will prepare you to run with more confidence and faster than ever before.

Here’s what Sarah A wrote me after following my training program:

I just wanted to say THANK YOU for all of your resources and training advice!

I ran a NEW PR and Qualified for Boston at The Dallas Marathon this morning, even after making a wrong turn halfway through!

I stuck to the “Comfortable, Confident, Compete” mantra during the first 10 miles when everyone else, including the 3:30 pacer group, went out too fast.

I negative split the second half despite the massive mile-long hill at mile 20!!

This would have never been possible without your training resources!

I will definitely be recommending you to everyone who asks.

Coach Chris is absolutely the best coach I’ve worked with. He’s specific and thoughtful in his approach to tailoring workouts for you, and he adjusts pacing/workouts daily as needed to help you achieve your absolute best. I’ve PR’d in every distance I’ve raced thus far! He’s also supportive and extremely encouraging. I can’t think of better attributes I’d wish for in coach and am extremely pleased with his coaching skill and knowledge. I would highly recommend him!

I've worked with Chris for several races (half marathons and marathons) and have had great results! I have PR'ed in both distances since working with him. His training plans are easy to follow and balanced between workouts and easy miles. He provides great advice on strength training and nutrition as well.

Chris is a great motivator, with the right blend of compassion and challenges. His customized workouts have helped me both in marathon training, and in approaching other distances with an aim to PRs. highly recommended.

I’ve been working remotely with Chris since the summer - currently training for Berlin Marathon. He has been very supportive in getting me back on track, he’s responsive and easy to talk to. I feel more confident in my training since I started working with him and was surprised by my progress in a 10 mile race a few weeks ago!

Working with Coach Erica was awesome!! During my marathon training I was able to increase not only the fitness, but the confidence in my running ability to have both a successful and a FUN race! Looking forward to working towards crushing more PRs.

Fantastic, in-depth training plans complete with YouTube videos to fully explain the methods. Loved the “fastest mile” plan and ran a 30 second PR! Can’t wait to do the marathon plan. Thanks, Chris!

Thank you to Chris for helping me find joy in running the marathon distance! With his advice and encouragement, I was able to PR by 16 minutes and finish with a smile on my face. I look forward to continuing working with Chris to keep discovering the potential I didn’t even know I had!

I have only been working with Chris for a few months now. He’s been coaching me towards my goal of qualifying for the Boston Marathon and since working with him and following the plans he’s made for me, I’ve PR’d almost every run I’ve done and I am within reach of my goal. He’s truly is a great coach and is very encouraging and really dedicates himself to each athlete and what they’re looking for. I’m so glad my friend referred him to me.
