I am writing this testimonial with immense gratitude and excitement about the incredible journey I've had with your Run coaching programs, particularly under the guidance of Luis, my run adaptive coach.

Before joining, I was a runner with aspirations of improvement but unsure of where to begin. Luis’s coaching not only provided a structured plan but also instilled confidence in me from day one. 

The personalized approach, tailored to my fitness level and goals, made all the difference.

One of the key benefits I've experienced is the significant improvement in my running technique. 

Luis’s attention to my run programming has not only prevented injuries but has also made my runs more efficient and enjoyable. 

The gradual progression in training ensured that I never felt overwhelmed, and each milestone achieved boosted my motivation.

The mental toughness training incorporated into the program has been transformative. Luis's guidance has not only helped me overcome mental barriers during runs but has also positively impacted various aspects of my life. 

I’m Looking forward to my next few blocks of run coaching leading up to my next marathon in Berlin where I will be looking to reach a sub 4hr marathon ????????
