On-Line Coaching

Coaching built around you. Mostly on-line but with the contact, feedback and analysis you need to make long-term progress. It includes:

• Introduction: Phone call and follow-up questionnaire to establish your experience, goals and requirements
• Initial baseline test runs: To establish your thresholds. Periodic review of thresholds and other markers
• Training Peaks Premium account: Included to help you get the best out of your training.
• Training programme: Completely individual. Delivered via Training Peaks, with sessions set in advance
• Annual Training Plan: Long-term, strategic planning of your training
• Strength & conditioning programme: Tailored to reflect your current experience, goals and identified strengths/ weaknesses
• Feedback and data analysis: Via Training Peaks on key sessions
• Programme changes: To reflect ‘life’ stuff, progress etc
• Regular communication: Via WhatApp/email, in addition to a more structured review video call every 6 weeks
• Race preparation: Guidance on all aspects of preparation e.g. fuelling, pacing, recceing, raceday psychology, tactics, kit
• Community support: Optional WhatsApp groups, Strava club

Training Plan

I always prefer to work individually with someone, but if you just want a structured, individually-tailored plan to help you prepare for a specific event, this plan may be right for you. You can expect:

• Introduction: Phone/email introduction and questionnaire to establish your experience, goals and requirements
• Progressive and individualised training programme: Delivered via Training Peaks, to prepare you for your event
• Strength and conditioning programme: For either gym or home-based sessions, broadly targeted to your experience level, your target event and any identified weaknesses
• Community support: Optional WhatsApp groups, Strava club
• Training resources: Ad hoc articles, advice on the WhatsApp group
• Note that I don’t usually offer plans for more than 4 months due to the number of variables which can occur over this period. But feel free to get in touch to discuss your individual requirements if you’d like something a bit different
• If you want to simply purchase a training plan for a specific event with no further interaction from me then please head to my profile on Training Peaks (https://www.trainingpeaks.com/coach/run-with-martha#bio) where you will find my stand-alone plans

In-Person Coaching

• Either as stand-alone sessions or as part of your coaching package
• Keswick/ North Lakes area
• Use to get general advice and guidance on running on the fells, form, running-specific exercises, an accompanied run etc
• Let me know what you’d like support with and tell you if I can help

One-Off Consultation

• Consultation: Up to a 45 minute conversation to discuss a specific issue or race, or to get advice on session planning, strength and conditioning, long-term goal setting etc
• Feedback Document: Confirming the contents of the conversation and giving advice on whatever we’ve talked about
• Good for those who need some guidance but don’t want to commit to individual coaching
