My coaching programmes and running plans are designed to get you moving and ready to take you further and faster than you’ve ever been.
I offer running coaching on a 1-2-1 or small group basis.
My philosophy is to work closely with you so that you can master the techniques of running and train effectively.
My sessions are structured and delivered with an emphasis on learning in a positive way that will support personal growth.
My aim is to enable you to achieve your desired outcomes whether that be taking up running for the first time, running personal bests, trying a new distance, running off-road or learning to train smarter.

PASSIONATE ABOUT RUNNING AND THE BENEFITS OF IMPROVING TECHNIQUE
About me
I am passionate about encouraging and supporting people to change the way they think about their running technique and movement so that they can become the runner they aspire to be.
And when advising on running plans, I totally believe in designing sessions around the way people live their lives, so that all training remains achievable and fun.
MY RUNNING EXPERIENCE
I am an ex 800m track runner and international orienteer and have a BSc honours degree in Sports and Exercise Science (Coaching).
I am a UK Athletics Endurance and Fell and Hill running coach and have previously qualified as a British Orienteering coach. I have worked for British Orienteering as their Talent and Performance Manager which involved developing British Orienteering’s world class programme for the athletes, organising and delivering training camps and competitions, overseeing the selection of athletes, and support the athletes with their competitive performances, by using motivational techniques and helping them to analyse how to improve.
