Run Your Fastest Mile! Training Program

Run Your Fastest Mile in 5-Weeks!


Do you want to get faster?

One of the biggest lessons I can teach you is to simply, “never stop working on your speed.”

As you go about your running journey, you can only choose one thing at a time to focus on.

You can improve your speed or you can improve your endurance, but you can’t focus on both at the same time.

When you train for a half-marathon or marathon, you are primarily focusing on improving your endurance.

This is because these events primarily challenge your endurance and not your speed.

In fact, your speed stays relatively stagnant while marathon and half-marathon training.

But when you get faster over shorter distances like the 1-mile run, it becomes much easier to then cover longer distances at a quicker pace.

If you can run a faster all-out mile, then your next half-marathon or marathon will certainly be much faster too.

That’s why it’s essential for marathon and half-marathon runners to dedicate periods of time each year to getting faster.

Unfortunately most marathoners and half-marathoners have never really taken any time to focus on getting faster over shorter distances.

Instead, they keep training for marathon after marathon, never really challenge themselves to run faster over shorter distances, and ultimately see little improvement in their speed from race to race.

But the awesome thing is, because most marathon runners’ speed is so under-developed they can achieve huge improvements in speed and lower their 1-Mile PR significantly in as little as five weeks time.

In fact, the vast majority of athletes who follow this 5-week training program set a new PR in the mile simply because they have never really focused on such a short distance before.


So are you ready to break your Mile PR?

Over the course of 5 weeks, my “Run Your Fastest Mile!” Training Program will help you develop the confidence and skills you need to take down your personal best in the mile. And then once you return to the half marathon or marathon, you’ll be able to run much faster in your long distance training and races.

So let’s get after it!

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.

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!

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Am I “good enough” to follow this training program?

A: I specifically designed this program to help athletes of all ability levels. Everyone deserves to train like an athlete and will benefit from training the way the best athletes do. Using the tested and proven techniques contained within my training, I’ve helped athletes in their 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, 50’s and 60’s run faster and more confidently than ever before. There are multiple different training plans contained within the program, so you can choose the plan that’s most suitable for you when you start. As you improve over time, you can move on to the more advanced plans contained within the program.

Q: Is now the right time for me to start this training program?

A: There’s no better time to get started training “the right way” than now. It takes years to develop into the best runner that you can be. When you get on the right track and stay consistent with it, you will continue to see improvement for many months and years to come. Don’t delay reaching your true potential any longer by continuing to wallow about with your running. It’s amazing what you can accomplish in just a month’s time when you commit to a proven program and see it through. After you start this training program, I bet you’ll find yourself saying, “I wish I learned how to train like this sooner.”

Q: Couldn’t I get this information for free online or for cheaper elsewhere?

A: Probably. But it would take you countless hours to wade through the mountain of content on YouTube, Google Search, and reading the 100’s of books on training. You will also take a lot of wrong turns along the way. Running is a simple sport at it’s heart, but the overwhelming amount of content and different opinions out there will leave you jumping from one training philosophy to the next and never making any consistent progress. There’s also a ton of bad advice out there and it’s hard to tell what is trustworthy. To become your best it’s essential that you commit to one trusted system and see it through. I’ve compiled everything I’ve learned from 5+ years of full time coaching and successfully training 100’s of athletes to create this training program. When you buy this training program, you get information that is straight to the point and proven to work. I stand behind my advice 100% and know it works. You can look at the success stories and reviews from my athletes to see that my training works. This training program will save you time, frustration, and wrong turns of trying to figure it all out by yourself.

Q: What if I have questions or need support during my training?

A: You can get support throughout your training within The Knighton Runs Training Group on Facebook. The Knighton Runs Training Group is my online community exclusively available for athletes following my training programs. You can ask your questions inside and get answers from me and fellow athletes following the program. When you purchase this training program, you will also get discounted access to one-on-one video consultations with me, Coach Chris Knighton, as needed.

Q: I’m on the fence… what if I buy this program and realize it’s not for me?

A: If you are passionate about becoming a better runner and want to start training the right way, then I know my training program will help you run faster and more confident than ever before. I want you to be 100% satisfied with this training program and am therefore offering a 30-day money back guarantee to make purchasing it completely risk free.
