PROJECT MOONSHOT 2025 Application

Event Ended

How do you make the impossible possible? You start by calling your moonshot. This fall, Nike NYC’s PROJECT MOONSHOT will be inspired by Faith Kipyegon, who has called hers: to become the first woman to run a mile in under 4 minutes. At Nike, our goal is to help make athletes’ dreams real — athletes like you, and athletes like Faith. Because no matter the moonshot, it ALL matters. Your marathon goal doesn’t have to break world records to be revolutionary. Whether you’re chasing a personal best, running your first marathon, or simply proving to yourself that you can, your ambition is valid, powerful, and worth celebrating. This summer, Nike NYC will bring back PROJECT MOONSHOT — a multi-month training journey curated to support the women’s running community. Wherever you are on your journey, we’re here to help you chase your moonshot.

This marathon season, we will lean into the spirit of pushing boundaries and dreaming big by chasing our own moonshots.

PROJECT MOONSHOT 2025 is inspired by world record holder Faith Kipyegon's upcoming 4-minute mile attempt. Just like Faith, you'll have the chance to chase your own goals this marathon season.

Nike NYC invites the NYC women’s running community to join a 16-week marathon training program rooted in community, coaching, innovation, and unwavering support. Launching in early July, this multi-month journey will be designed to make your next marathon your boldest move yet.

You’ll get access to Nike Coaches, gear, in-person group runs, workouts, recovery sessions, and more — everything you need to feel motivated, and supported every step of the way.

Nike NYC will be selecting participants from the women’s running community who have been officially accepted to run in NYC Marathon, Chicago Marathon. Please note: Proof of official acceptance is required to be eligible.
