You're ambitious, and you've already run a marathon or two - so you know you're capable of more. But between back-to-back meetings, travel and deadlines, you're left guessing: Am I doing too much? Too little? Am I one bad week away from an injury that erases months of work?

Generic plans off the internet don't know about your 6am flight or the day that detonated at 5pm. You don't need more miles. You need the right ones - built around your real life.

This is built for one kind of runner:

• You have a demanding job and limited, often unpredictable training time.

• You've finished at least one marathon and want a genuine PR — a sub-4, a sub-3, or a qualifying time for the race you're dreaming of.

• You're done guessing and want a plan grounded in sports science.

• You'll trust the process — including running easy when the plan says easy.

If that sounds like you, we'll get on well.

And if your goal looks different - your first half marathon, a comeback after time off, or staying in shape between seasons of another sport - get in touch anyway. The method doesn't change: training built around your life, not the other way around.

I didn't start running to win medals - I started out of boredom. It turned into an obsession with sports science and human performance, and eventually a 2:47 marathon - all built around a full-time corporate job.

So I know exactly what your week looks like: closing the laptop after a day of back-to-back calls and still heading out for intervals in the dark. I've engineered my own training around that reality for years.

My philosophy is simple: your training fits your life - not the other way around.

I don't coach on hunches or "what worked for me." Every plan runs on the 80/20 endurance framework - roughly 80% easy, 20% hard - the polarized approach used by many of the world's best endurance athletes, and the most time-efficient way to actually improve.

What that means for you:

• Every session has a purpose. A clear physiological goal for each workout — no junk miles eating your evenings.

• Most of your running is genuinely easy. That's why the hard sessions land, and why you can absorb training on top of a heavy work load.

• Load and recovery are balanced on purpose. You progress steadily instead of swinging between overtraining and burnout — which keeps you training consistently and lowers your injury risk.

Maximum return on every minute you invest.

Everything I coach, I've tested on myself — around a full-time job:

• 5 km - 17:09

• 10 km - 35:26

• Half marathon - 1:21:03

• Marathon - 2:47:23

Every option is built around your goal race and your real calendar. Not sure which fits? Book a free consult and we'll work it out - it's included with all coaching. 

"I can barely find time to train — can this actually work?"

That's the entire point. The 80/20 method plus a plan built around your calendar is designed for the 4–6 focused hours a week a professional can realistically give - not 12.

"I'm not that fast. Am I 'good enough' to be coached?"

If you’ve got a goal and you’re willing to work toward it, you’re exactly who I coach. Whether that’s a first half marathon or a sub-3, the job is the same: build the training around your life. This isn’t only for elites.

"Is online coaching personal enough?"

You get a fully individual plan, regular check-ins, and direct access to me - usually more contact than in-person clients get.

"What if a work crisis wipes out a week?"

We adjust. Your plan flexes around your life - that's the whole model.

"What do I need to start?"

A GPS watch and the willingness to trust the process - I’ll set up TrainingPeaks for you.
