The Road To Marathon Series.... powered by New Balance
Running a marathon. It’s a test of heart. A battle with doubt. A quiet promise to yourself that you won’t quit... no matter how far you have to go. It can be long and... it can be lonely a road.
But it doesn't have to be.
This summer, we're bringing hundreds of runners together from across the US for the Endorphins x New Balance Road To Marathon Training Series. A 5-city, application-only program leading into the fall race season. Because training with friends is better than doing it alone.
For $60, selected runners will receive:
• A free signature Endorphins x New Balance singlet or race crops
• Free personalized training support via the Endorphins App
• 20% discount on New Balance shoes and gear
• 30% discount on Endorphins gear
• Additional exclusive partner perks
• Many chances to win free shoes for staying committed to your program
• Access to dedicated private space for members in the program
• Access to New Balance sponsored post race parties at each race
This program is designed for athletes that live in Chicago, DC, NYC, Philly, and Dallas and lead into the cities respective marathons. You must have a bib to a marathon this fall to be accepted. There will be virtual options to support runners who do not live in the outlined cities.
