COACHING SERVICES

A philosophy built on experience

My philosophy is based on the belief that everyone can improve.

And with more than 20 years working with young athletes and children who love running I am always able to put this philosophy to work.

No matter at what stage of development from the very youngest to those approaching the senior ranks the intervention of the skills and advice of an experienced coach will take the young person forward to unleash their full potential.

All my coaching is built upon a long term on-going trusting relationship. There are always short term improvements to be gained however to really succeed "hurrying forward slowly" through the trails and tribulations of a young growing and changing athlete is the key.

What's on offer?

The most important aspect of coaching is the personal contact which builds to a long a trusting runner/coach relationship and this can be achieved in a number of ways. I offer 1:1 coaching, coaching in small groups or remotely. The choice is yours. Whichever way suits your needs or those of your young athlete you will be working with a highly experienced and knowledgeable coach.

See below for a small selection of the plans and services available for "mere mortals and beyond" of all ages and abilities.
