Whether you choose to work with Mark in person or simply
online, he can definitely help you to achieve your running goals. His
structured, progressive approach will provide you with the motivation and
accountability required to achieve the results you desire.
Mark believes the key to quality coaching is the
appreciation that everyone is an individual and “one size does not fit all”.
You must balance your training and goals with your lifestyle and commitments. And
let's face it; you won’t get that from a generic training plan.
Mark’s philosophy is that coaching is an educational
process. High quality coaching/education allows the runner to understand the
process and why they are training in a certain way, rather than simply
“training”. This holistic approach is proven to provide the runner with a
greater likelihood of improvement and achieving their goals.
Mark is a qualified British Triathlon Federation coach, a
Newton Natural Running Form coach (one of only 12 in the UK) and has over 22
years experience in competitive sport within the military, which includes
multiple Ironman triathlon races and representing Great Britain at the European
Age Group Triathlon Championships.
Services available:
Online bespoke training plan:
The online training plan is structured to include and
integrate all the stresses and commitments of our hectic daily lives (including
life, family, work & financial), with the goal of achieving a balanced life,
thus leading to consistency in training, which in turn leads to significant
improvements in performance.
Mark writes a fortnightly plan that is totally bespoke to
the individual (most coaches provide 4 week plans as it’s VERY time consuming
to update a plan every week). There is nothing copied and pasted from the
internet, it is totally individual to that person, their goals, fitness level,
work/family/social life, etc. Our view is that there is no point in piling on
loads of training sessions on top on of our hectic daily lives, it has to be
integrated into our life, this is the key to our highly successful training plans.
The service includes an initial consultation, goal setting
and season planning, an individual training plan structured to fit around your
life, unlimited adjustments and updates to the training plan and unlimited
email and text contact and advice.
Price: £50 a month (based a 3 month minimum commitment)
One-to-one running coaching:
Mark offers one-to-one running coaching in the Cardiff area.
This predominantly covers running technique but also includes pace control,
breathing, understanding of training methodologies and correct warm up and cool
down protocols.
The one-to-one running coaching session teaches the runner
an efficient and effective run technique. This technique allows you to run more
economically, with fewer injuries and best of all, faster! With these new
running skills you’ll enjoy a more active lifestyle and gain great health
benefits whilst enjoying the wonderful sport of running.
Price: £35 per session
Combination of online training plan and one-to-one coaching:
A bespoke combination of online training and one-to-one
running coaching sessions can be arranged to suit the runner’s needs.
