INTERVIEW AND GOAL SETTING

 
 
 

Running Coaching

My philosophy revolves around the holistic development of athletes, fostering a positive and supportive environment, and utilizing evidence-based training principles to help individuals achieve their full potential as runners.

Individualized Approach: I believe that every runner is unique, with different strengths, weaknesses, goals, and motivations. I tailor my coaching to meet each athlete's specific needs and abilities. This involves conducting assessments, understanding their background, and creating personalized training plans to optimize their performance.

Goal Setting: Setting clear and achievable goals is essential for progress. I work closely with my athletes to establish short-term and long-term objectives, both in terms of performance and personal growth. Regularly reassessing and adjusting these goals is part of the process to ensure continued improvement.

Balanced Training: I emphasize the importance of a well-rounded training program that includes endurance, speed, strength, flexibility, and mobility exercises. This comprehensive approach improves overall fitness and helps prevent imbalances or overuse injuries.

Science-Based Training: I rely on evidence-based training methods and principles to design effective training programs. This includes considering periodization, intensity, volume, rest, and recovery to prevent overtraining and injuries while maximizing performance gains.

Injury Prevention: Prioritizing injury prevention is crucial for long-term success. I educate athletes on proper warm-ups, cool-downs, and recovery strategies to reduce the risk of injuries andmaintain their overall well-being.

Long-Term Development: My coaching is focused on long-term athlete development rather than short-term gains. I aim to instill a love for running and a commitment to a healthy lifestyle that extends beyond the time they spend with me.


Overall, my coaching philosophy revolves around each runner's potential, promoting overall well-being, and fostering a community of dedicated and supportive athletes. By combining personalized training, science-backed methods, and a positive atmosphere, I aim to help my athletes reach their running goals.
