Questions, answered
The things runners usually want to know before they get in touch: what it costs, how it works, and whether it's right for you. Can't see yours? The free call is there for exactly that.
How much does running coaching cost?
Three ways in: a one-off Self-Guided plan at £59, Guided coaching at £49 a month, or Full Coaching at £79 a month where I'm in your corner week to week. Until 31 March 2027 there are founding prices of £49, £39 and £69, and on Guided and Full you keep yours for your first 6 months. Every option runs on the same private platform. Mostly you're paying for how much of me is in it; the coached plans also get the daily check-in, and Full Coaching gets a race-day pacing plan for your course. Compare all three side by side on the pricing page, or the free call sorts it out.
Do I need a running coach?
"Need" is probably the wrong word, but most runners who get one wish they'd done it sooner. On your own it's easy to drift: too hard, too easy, too much, then injured, never quite sure you're doing the right thing. A coach takes that off your plate, reading your training, shaping it around your real life, and keeping you honest when motivation dips. If you've got a goal you actually care about, it's the difference between hoping you'll get there and knowing you're on track.
Does online running coaching actually work?
It's how most of the runners I coach train, anywhere in the world. Your plan lives on your platform, your runs sync in, I read them and adjust, and we talk it through. I also coach in person here in Kent if you'd rather. The training doesn't care whether I'm stood next to you. Your consistency is what moves the needle.
I'm a beginner or not very fast, is coaching for me?
Especially for you. I coach first-timers eyeing their first 5K right through to club runners chasing a PB, and it's the same care either way. You don't need to "get fit before you start." That's the whole point of a coach: we start exactly where you are.
How is this different from a running app like Runna or Strava?
An app hands you a plan and a lot of charts, then leaves you to interpret them. I write your plan for you, then watch how it's going and change it when life (or your body) says so. An app doesn't notice three bad nights' sleep or a niggle in your calf. I do.
What if I get injured or life gets busy?
We adjust. No guilt, no broken streaks. Lose a week to work or a cold? The plan flexes around it. Carrying a niggle? We back off before it becomes an injury, rather than after. Training that ignores real life doesn't last.
How do we get started?
Book a free 20-minute call. No cost, no hard sell, just an honest chat about where you are and where you want to get to. If we're a good fit, I'll build your plan from there. If we're not, I'll tell you.
Still got a question? That's what the call is for.
