When you sign up for a virtual coaching package with Active4Life you do not get the standard one size fits all training plans that you find for free or in a magazine. You as a runner have individual fitness starting point, goals, training history, training preferences and most importantly training capacity. As a coach, I take into account your weekly life rhythm in order to best schedule your training so that it is realistic to fit it all in,maintaining the joy of running and not adding additional stress which will only hamper improvement.

Driven by passion and pursuing excellence, I am the eternal problem solver, always trying to find ways to help each runner run easier, stronger, faster and with more joy!

My training plans have a clear, simple, progressive structure built on 30 years competitive and 20 years coaching experience. No bells, whistles or AI and false quick success promises, only honest scientific coaching advice.
