I offer personalised coaching to runners across two different levels of service. Depending on your level of experience and requirements from a coach depends on which service suits you best. My aim is to ensure I am helping you get the most out of your running within reason given other variables in your life (time, money, other hobbies etc) so if that criteria is ever not being met then you should stop and change things.
Basic Programming:
- Program to follow every 2 weeks delivered via FinalSurge training app
- Able to be adapted to any group training or social runs along with schedule changes throughout the 2 weeks
- Communication via email, text and within FinalSurge as required.
- Best suited to those runners who like a program for accountability and are training for general health reasons and/or events ranging from 5k up to a half marathon.

- Best suited to runners of all ability who want more interaction and feedback with their running especially when starting out or building to a particular goal race. Anyone aiming for a half marathon for the first time, a marathon, any distance trail race or seeking serious performance improvements this is the best service for you.

Now, if you’re unsure as to what method is best for you then email me or call me with a little spiel of why you would like to be coached and I’ll be able to help point you in the right direction. If you think that’s weird that I would give you advice, well then coaching is probably not for you!
I don’t like to boast about my coaching too much but if you need convincing that I am a suitable coach then either scroll the About Me page or read this quick summary:
- Athletics Australia Level 1 Recreational Coach (the most basic qualification you can get and keeps me registered).
- Coached with Adelaide based group RunAsOne for two years equating to over 100 different athletes and 1500 different monthly programs.
- Coached; several sub 3 hour marathoners, a 2nd place at Ultra Trail Kosciusko, someone to qualify for the World 70.3 Champs, a 22 minute 5k runner into a 17:high 5k runner and consistent 80-90km’s a week, a variety of middle-aged women running close to 20 minutes for 5k and also aiming to break 25 minutes for 5k or just run their first half or full marathons, a shift worker going from a 40 minute 10k PB to effectively running his debut marathon at that pace, and a runner with a chaotic training and racing history into a multiple podium winner and regular 140km a week type runner… plus also myself, an obsessed person who has documented their training for the last four years on this blog going from a reasonably average runner into a two-time national champion and winning several marathons.
If you’ve made it this far and are looking for more evidence as to why I would be a great coach for you and would improve your running then consider these final selling points:
- I’m a one man band whose only coaching focus is the limited amount of people I coach.
- I am motivated to improve my coaching as much as you are probably motivated to improve your running. Each person is a unique coaching challenge which excites me.
- I just love running and believe I have something worth sharing with people. Take a look at this blog that has been going for more than four years as evidence of that.
- *There are even discounts on offer!
- Refer a friend to be coached by me and receive one month FREE of coaching for yourself provided that friend stays for three months.
- If you’re already part of an existing training group or athletics club and want my coaching to sit alongside of that then 20% of your coaching fee will be discounted.
Of course, if you have any questions or want to negotiate a better service for yourself that suits your running then please get in touch and contact me. Otherwise, enjoy your running!
