Whilst on my own passage through the levels of running, I'm keen to guide people on a similar journey from novice to advanced-amateur, and beyond.
I'm offering 1-1 coaching for ambitious individuals who are willing to commit themselves to a long term plan to become the best runner they can.
I'd like to help those targeting distances between 3000m and Marathon, and hope in future to expand to the middle-distances.
I'm a runner since 2019, and following an active childhood found myself naturally progressing to PB's from generic training and endless Parkrun efforts. It wasn't until 2022 (1:23 HM), when I myself invested in a coach, that I started my journey to new heights (1:09 HM).
The strength I've recognised in my own path is not one of rapid ascension, but a steady and consistent build over 3 years to top county level - this has kept me constantly engaged with training but most importantly - injury free.
I'm keen to introduce formal training to talented individuals who are ambitious enough to make their running a priority, targeting not only the next race, but the next season.
This first involves building a weekly training schedule which suits the runner before then identifying the strengths and weaker areas in their performances. From here we can choose a target event and map out a path to get there safely, in good shape and conditioned to the demands of the event.
I wouldn't describe myself as a loyalist to a particular training philosophy, but I'm well versed in the works of Martin & Coe and I am myself experimenting with the Norwegian teachings.
Feel free to reach out to me, looking forward to receiving an enquiry from you.
