Trail Run West Midlands

Great Coach, just follow his process. I started training with Andy 8 months ago in an attempt to improve my running. Entering my 50’s I was struggling with injury and motivation. I asked for help with an upcoming trail half marathon and Andy was on it with a plan and a process. He is incredibly supportive and enthusiastic always available for a chat and a boost of confidence. My running has progressed to a whole different level, I have remained injury free, and last month I completed a 42 mil...

I've always run from a young age, however I needed a new challenge. I wanted to go long but with age creeping up on me I wanted to do it properly. I approached Andy and haven't looked back! I've learnt ultra running is not all about running, there's conditioning and weights, and even yoga to incorporate into the programme. Always injury prone, but since training with Andy I've remained injury free and loving life!! I even came 2nd as over 45 in The Lap... It's all down to following an indi...

I've been attending the HIIT and Run session for the past 6 months and have found them really useful, in helping improve my running ability. The sessions are well structured with with varying drills to warm up, before heading off for the main part of the session which is clearly explained, the full what we are doing, why we are doing this and how this will benefit your running. Followed by a good stretch at the end. I have also had a personal training plan from Andy for a 50 mile Ultra event...

Would highly recommend! I did a 10k ten week training plan, 4 sessions a week including hill reps, strength and HIIT exercises and some slower chatty pace runs. Andy is brilliant at motivating you and has depths of knowledge, so you maintain form and motivation on race day and when out on your own. The hill reps of the training sessions were the hardest, but felt the most beneficial, and really paid off on the uphill stretches of my race. I would class myself as a casual runner, but when it c...
