02 / MY COACHING ETHOS

A plan is only
part of the story.

Running apps, Strava and AI can help you track progress or find a training schedule. But the numbers don’t tell you everything about the person doing the running.

Sometimes you need to talk about a tough session. Sometimes it’s confidence, motivation, or the thought of what’s waiting on race day. Your coach should be someone you can have that conversation with.

I’ve run these events, faced horrendous conditions and worked through the moments when carrying on feels hardest. That experience informs how I support you: listening, understanding and helping you find your way through.

Your training plan is built by me, not generated by AI. It takes account of your experience, your life, your individual needs and the fundamental challenges of the race ahead.

“Behind every training plan is a person. That’s where the coaching starts.”

03 / MEET YOUR COACH

I’m Oliver.
A runner.
Your coach.

I coach people who want to make more of their running, with a particular focus on ultrarunning and the demands of endurance.

My coaching brings together training, endurance nutrition and experience of the mental demands of these events. I know what it feels like when the weather turns, the race gets difficult and you have to find a way to keep going.

SUPPORT FOR THE PERSON, AS WELL AS THE CHALLENGE

A FEW PRACTICAL DETAILS

Before we
get started.

Can we work together remotely?

Yes. Monthly and event-specific coaching are delivered online, so we can work together wherever you train.

What’s the difference between monthly and event coaching?

Monthly coaching costs £65 per month and includes a bespoke training plan, WhatsApp access 24/7 and a monthly one-to-one check-in call. Event coaching has a defined race goal and an agreed programme covered by one package fee, with price on application.

What kind of race or challenge support do you offer?

Pacing, crewing and full race logistics, as well as logistical preparation and content creation for bigger endurance challenges. My camper-converted Defender 110 is available as part of land-based support. We agree the scope around your event, dates, access rules and needs.

Are the training plans AI generated?

No. I build each plan personally around your individual needs, training experience, life and the specific demands of your race. The mental side of running is part of our coaching conversations too.

How much does it cost?

Monthly online coaching is £65 per month. Event coaching and race or challenge support are priced on application. Support fees depend on the duration of the race or challenge and the logistics, pacing, crewing or content work involved.
