Created in collaboration with 4x CrossFit Games Athlete James Newbury, this program strikes the balance of making huge gains in functional fitness performance and distance running. In 17 weeks, you'll build the capacity to tackle 13.1 miles while maintaining your competitive edge in the gym. Get ready to redefine what's possible.
You're ready to prove that functional fitness athletes can excel at endurance events without losing their edge in the gym. Here’s what you can expect:
- Build serious endurance while maintaining your functional fitness performance
- Master the balance between high-intensity workouts and distance running
- Develop the engine to tackle both heavy metcons and long runs
- Break free from the "you have to choose" mindset
- Build the endurance for 13.1 miles while keeping your competitive edge
- Maintain your strength and skills while developing serious running capacity
- Watch your engine grow as you master both disciplines
- Experience the perfect balance of metcon intensity and running volume
- Transform into an athlete who can dominate both in the gym and on race day
- See consistent progress in both domains without sacrificing either
We've cracked the code on becoming legitimately good at multiple disciplines — without sacrificing what you've already built.
While others tell you to pick one path, we've been helping athletes like you excel in both. You've probably been told you can't build serious strength while improving your running - we're here to show you not only that you can, but that combining both makes you a more complete, robust and capable athlete. So if you want to become the kind of athlete who can crush a heavy lifting session and then go run a personal best, you're in the right place and we have the plan for you.
- Be comfortable with functional fitness movements and free weights
- Be able to run continuously for 45 minutes at a low intensity (Zone 2)
- Have access to standard CrossFit equipment
- Be ready to commit to 5-7 training sessions per week
