Prices in USD. Weekly packages are billed weekly with no minimum term and no joining fee.

Full flexibility

No contracts and no joining fees. Pause for illness, injury or a busy season, and come back when you're ready.

Built for busy lives

Sessions are planned around your work, travel and family, so training adds capacity instead of draining it.

Recovery counts

Rest, sleep and fuelling are part of the plan. Doing more is not always doing better.

How it works

Three steps to your first week.

  1. 01

    Complete your runner profile

    About 90 seconds: your goal, current running, schedule, equipment and any niggles.

  2. 02

    Get your first week

    Ronnie replies within 24 hours and builds week one, by email or in Garmin Connect.

  3. 03

    Review every week

    Your plan is adjusted to how you actually recovered, not how a template assumed you would.

Why coaching

A fixed schedule versus a coach who adapts.

A fixed 16-week schedule

  • Assumes every week goes to plan
  • A late meeting or bad night means running tired or skipping guiltily
  • Same paces whether you slept four hours or eight
  • No one to ask when something starts to hurt

Coaching with Ronnie

  • Your week is rebuilt around work, travel and family
  • Volume and intensity adjust to your sleep and recovery
  • Every session has a clear purpose, so no junk miles
  • Direct access when a niggle or question comes up

Your coach

Ronnie trains around a demanding life too.

Lifelong runner, Ironman, ultramarathoner and author. Ronnie lost 30kg and has kept it off, and knows what it takes to train after a long flight, a full working day or a short night's sleep. That experience goes into every plan.
