Run Academy offer coaching to members who are looking to improve their running performance. All Run Academy coaches are qualified (UK Athletics Coaches in Running Fitness and Level 2 coaches), experienced runners and are supported and assisted by a number of run ‘Leaders’, who also hold formal qualifications (UK Athletics Leader in Running Fitness). All members of the coaching team are fully insured by UK Athletics and give their time for free. We do this because we love running and love helping others to run better, smarter and faster. We are happy to coach runners at all levels*, and regularly run sessions to help those new to running, or who have taken a break. We recognise and regularly see that a beginner today is the high performance runner of the future – and we have some very real and local examples of this! In return, we ask that runners signing up for coaching commit to our 3 C’s:
Whilst we do have to limit our capacity in order to keep group sizes both safe and effective (and to stay within the UKA recommended limits), we aim to never turn anyone away!
*Please note we coach over 18s only.
- Consistency – You will regularly attend training sessions, and work with your coach to improve your running at other times
- Commitment – You’ll try your best, and you’ll stick with it when it gets tough!
- Competitive – You are looking to improve your running performances and you’ll work with your coach to and the Run Academy team to test your performance through being part of the Run Academy team.
