Run Smart .... Not Hard

Each person is unique. Every person brings different levels of experience, fitness, and time they can commit to working out. In addition, the types of workouts will vary depending on whether one is a Novice, Intermediate, advanced, or Elite runner. A one-size-fits-all solution that many sites offer for their marathon training systems won’t work for most people. We will help define your goals, allowing you to create a marathon training system that fits your needs and schedule.

Our Goals

Our goal is for you to be able to set up a system where at the end of your marathon training period you are ready and confident for your race. In addition, our greater goal is to have this journey give you additional tools to help improve your life outside of running.

What can you expect? After doing online coaching for over a decade for runners across the globe, so far, every first timer that has followed this program to the end has finished.  Seasoned runners who have completed a marathon over 3:30, who finish the 6-month program will usually see their time drop by 15-30 minutes.
