Personalised run coaching is not only for the elite runners. Personalised coaching is for all runners. Running coaches are open to everyone of all speeds and ages, no matter where you are in your running journey. 

So whether you want a 12 week half marathon training plan to achieve a PB in your upcoming race or wish to feel a bit fitter when you do Tuesday track session with your friends, why not try out a personal training plan? 

There are many different online training plans available for all abilities and distances, however having a plan which is bespoke to you and your goals can bring huge training gains over the free static training plans.

While online plans can provide a guideline for your training, a coach can prescribe training sessions that are specifically made for your goals, your life, and your body. This will reduce injury and when injury does come along, a personalised training plan will help you get back on track.

Getting a coach is also a good idea if you do not have much time before your next marathon and you need, for example, a 12 week marathon training plan. A coach will work with you towards this goal and help you plan out the next 12 weeks of training to ensure you get enough mileage in without it being too much. 

A few more ways a running coach near you will help you achieve your goals include: 

• Provide a training plan tailored to your pace and goal 

• Hold you accountable

• Improve performance

• Create a training plan which is made to fit your schedule

• Provide you with a support system 

• Provide extra motivation or discipline when required and celebrate your wins along the way
