Your dedicated Melbourne running coach will design a structured, adaptable, and progressive plan tailored to your lifestyle, race calendar, and ambitions.

Every plan is built with balanced recovery and injury prevention in mind, ensuring you train smarter, not just harder.
Preparing for a race takes commitment, and Melbourne’s fast-paced lifestyle can make it even more challenging. Between early mornings, long workdays, family commitments, and the city’s unpredictable weather, finding time for consistent training isn’t always easy. That’s why our Melbourne running coaching is designed to fit around your life.
We start by looking at your weekly schedule, energy levels, and personal priorities. From there, we create a practical plan that maximises the training time you have. Whether it’s a pre-dawn 5km along the Yarra River, a lunchtime 10km loop around the Tan Track, weekend long runs for your marathon or half marathon build-up, or structured endurance sessions to prepare for an ultra marathon. Each workout is planned so that even when life gets hectic, you’ll keep progressing toward your race-day goals.
