What Makes Us Different
We love running and want to spread our expertise and passion to inspire, motivate, and help you achieve your running goals.
We’re not here to sell you the latest “run faster without trying” scheme and we don’t claim to have the “super-secret, hidden formula that will transform you into a running god or goddess”.
We also believe you’re an experiment of one and that there is no one-size-fits-all way to train. We hate template plans and simple answers to complex questions.
Our team is now over 600 members strong and we’ve helped 867 runners in the last 2 years record new personal bests from 5k to the marathon.
We’re excited to help you improve as a runner and achieve your goals!
