Running coach for every runner - from your first 42.195 km to breaking 3 hours.
About.
Before my first marathon training block I ran occasionally, but I had no idea what I was doing. I’d randomly run a 5 km loop with random pace without any clue of heart rate zones. It worked for a little while, until I realized I wasn’t making any real progress.
Don’t get me wrong, running simply for the joy of movement is totally okay. But if you want to improve as a runner using proven methods, keep reading.
I recently left the company I co-founded a year and a half ago and for the first time in a while, I had the chance to pause and think about what I truly wanted. My passion is running and learning how to become a better runner. What if I could inspire others, share what I’ve learned, and help them achieve their running goals faster than they ever imagined?
I shaved my marathon time from 3:41 to 2:47 in two years between, and 10k (road) from 37:17 to 35:36 in 4 months between. The steepest learning curve came when I trusted the training process to my coach to help me reach those goals - coaching brings value at every level, whether you’re a beginner or experienced runner.
If you commit, I guarantee we’ll succeed in reaching your goals. Together.

Training programs.
All training plans are custom-made based on each athlete’s background, current fitness level, and goals.
These are not one-size-fits-all templates that you’re expected to follow strictly, because that approach rarely works. Life happens during marathon training, and adjustments are often necessary.
The training is divided into smaller, manageable blocks. I’ll be with you throughout the process, tracking your progress and making sure the plan continues to work for you.
