Hi, we’re the team at RunnersConnect

Here’s how we can help you

We’ve been coaching runners since 2009, one of the first companies to actually start “online coaching for runners”.

For many years, we mainly focused on helping runners train for races. However, over the years, we’ve learned two important things…

Many runners don’t always want to be training for a race and need help in that time between

And there are many of you who don’t even have races as a goal – you just want to enjoy running more and improve.

So, over the past few years, we’ve applied a lot about what we’ve learned works and doesn’t work when training for races and adapted it to runners who aren’t training for races.

What started as a platform geared towards runners training for races has become one of the most unique ways for runners to target their training and have more fun while being guided by an expert plan and coaches.

Now, we’re ready to help you become a fitter, more knowledgeable runner and make training as fun as it has ever been

You don’t have to be an elite runner, in your 20’s, or even run fast to fit in with this group.

The RunnersConnect community is filled with all types of runners – young, old, marathoners, 5kers, new to the sport, grizzled veterans and more.

We’re even global – with athletes from 80 different countries.

What we do all have in common is a love for running and a desire to improve, stay healthy and enjoy the sport more!

So, I can almost guarantee you’ll fit in with this group and love your new team!

The plans we write for this group are also customized to your age, goals, training experience and injury history.

We can write your plan in miles or kilometers, whichever you prefer.  So whether you’re just getting started on your running journey or you’re an experienced runner looking for that edge, our plan will work for you.

Still Have Questions?

We’ll do our best to answer them here, but feel free to email support@runnersconnect.net if you have any questions not covered here.

No, no gym is needed. All strength, stretching and accessory work can be done at your home. We do have gym options for those that have one and want to use one, but it is not required.

The running schedule and strength workouts are delivered via our training app, which allows you to see all your workouts in a daily, weekly or monthly view, access all the additional resources and information for each workout or each day, track your progress, and import/export your workouts to your favorite tracking devices. 

Most likely yes. Our plans are custom, so we can work around any needs you may have. We’ve worked with athletes in 80 different countries and people from just starting out to Boston qualifiers. We also have worked with runners as old as 77.

That’s okay as long as your race isn’t within the next 10-12 weeks.

The bootcamp is designed to work on a specific part of training outside of race specific workouts, so you’ll get the most value if you don’t have another race soon.

That said, if you want to join for the community and still want a schedule for your race, we can accommodate that.

Our bootcamps are divided into two types: coach-guided and self-guided.

Coach-guided bootcamps are equivalent to our Guidance membership and thus, they are free to join for Guidance members.

Self-guided bootcamps are the same membership level as our Training membership. Therefore, if you are a training member, it’s free to join any self-guided bootcamp.

The bootcamps are included and there is no additional fee.

This is the page for self-guided bootcamps.

Feel free to reach out to support@runnersconnect.net if you have any questions.

We offer two types of bootcamp levels to better fit your budget and coaching needs.

Simple speaking, coach-guided bootcamps also include coaching.

This means you’ll get daily feedback on your workouts and our coaches will more closely monitor your training.

Our self-guided bootcamps do not include daily coaching, but you can still ask questions when you have them.

This allows us to make the self-guided bootcamps cheaper.

We get it, training rarely ever goes to plan. If you miss a day or need an adjustment our coaches are here to help realign your plan.

Plus, your schedule will constantly adapt your training to your progress. If we notice that you’re having an easy time with all of the workouts we prescribe, we’ll speed things up to ensure you’re challenged appropriately. If you’re struggling or you have an injury pop up – we’ll back off and get your training on the right track. 

Yes, our self-guided bootcamps are designed so you can start at anytime.
