more likely to succeed. Studies show personalised plans consistently outperform rigid ones.

How it works

Science that listens.

01

It starts by understanding you.

Your coach analyses 200+ data points from your training — paces, heart rate trends, recovery patterns, race results — and scores exactly where you are.

Coach insight

You're running too much in the tempo zone and not enough easy. Slowing down would improve your endurance base significantly.

02

Then it builds a plan — with you.

Draft a plan, talk it through, reshape it. Move your long run, ask why, skip a day. It's a conversation, not a prescription.

Can I move my long run to Sunday? I have a family thing Saturday.
Done — I've moved your 22k to Sunday and shifted recovery to Monday. Saturday is now rest.

After every run, your coach is there.
