Built around
your life.
Most running programs are generic — built for a fictional average athlete with a fictional average life. Your program is built for you: your current fitness, your injury history, your work schedule, your race goal, and how your body actually responds to load.
Every session has a purpose. Every week is part of a bigger picture. You'll always know why you're doing what you're doing — because athletes who understand their training are athletes who stay consistent.
I use acute:chronic workload ratio (ACWR) to monitor your load week to week. This means we catch the early warning signs of overtraining and injury before they become a problem — not after you've already limped off the track.
Whether you're targeting your first half marathon or your fifth sub-3 hour full, the structure is the same: progressive overload, smart recovery, and a plan that adapts as you adapt.
