In the months leading up to race day, Nike will organise a series of training events beginning in November. Each session will feature runs, Nike Training Club (NTC) and expert advice.
Registered runners will be invited to the race’s pre-expo, where scientific expertise and tools will be on hand to assist runners in developing a training program.
