Soul-Viva Endurance
Your training plan doesn't have a job.You do.
Running coaching built around the reality of your life — not just the demands of your race.
You have a career. Commitments. Travel. Relationships. Bad nights. Stressful weeks.
And somewhere amongst all of that, you've decided you want to run faster. Your training needs to understand all of it.
Soul-Viva Endurance combines personalised running coaching with the Energy Leaks Framework to build performance that works in the real world.

The problem
You don't train in a vacuum.
Most training plans understand running. They know mileage. Intervals. Thresholds. Long runs. Recovery runs.
But they don't know that you flew overnight on Tuesday.
Or that your biggest meeting of the year is Thursday.
Or that you slept four hours last night.
Or that you're trying to be a partner, parent, leader and athlete simultaneously.
Your body doesn't separate training stress from life stress.Neither should your coaching.
The proposition
This is more than a training plan.
Soul-Viva Endurance takes a whole-performance approach. Your programme is built around:
Your goal
From your first meaningful running target to a significant marathon PB.
Your data
Training history, pace, heart rate, performance trends and recovery.
Your life
Workload, travel, family commitments and available training time.
Your energy
Sleep, Choices, Boundaries and Identity through the Energy Leaks Framework.
Your response
Training changes as your body — and your life — change.
The best training plan isn't the hardest one.It's the one you can absorb.
What's included
Built around you. Adapted with you.
Personalised training programme
An individual progressive programme designed around your current ability, goal race, training history and available time. Not a downloaded template. Not somebody else's programme. Yours.
Weekly performance review
Training is reviewed every week. Progress, fatigue, completed sessions and upcoming commitments are assessed and the programme adjusted where required.
Performance data
Where available, running data is used to understand how you are responding to training — rather than simply whether you completed it.
Real-life adaptation
Work trip? Poor sleep? Unexpected meeting? Missed session? Life happened. We adapt. We don't panic.
Energy Leaks Assessment
Every athlete begins by identifying potential leaks across Sleep, Choices, Boundaries and Identity. Better running performance isn't always created by adding another session — sometimes we identify what's already draining the system.
Regular 1:1 performance coaching
Individual coaching to review performance, training, recovery and the bigger picture.
Direct coach access
Direct WhatsApp access for questions, feedback and sensible programme adjustments. Personal — without pretending anyone is available at 3am.
Race strategy
For a target event: an individual strategy around pacing, preparation, race execution, fuelling where appropriate, and managing the final build-up to race day.
In-person coaching — Dubai
For athletes based in Dubai, one in-person coaching session per month is included. Running together, key training sessions, pacing work, technique and form observation, race preparation or performance discussions.
Additional in-person sessions can be arranged separately where required. For athletes outside Dubai, coaching is delivered remotely.
The Energy Leaks difference
You don't always need to train harder.Sometimes you need to leak less.
Sleep
Can your body actually absorb the training?
Choices
Are unnecessary decisions consuming capacity that should be going elsewhere?
Boundaries
Is work, life or even training itself taking more than you can sustainably give?
Identity
Are you training for what you actually need — or to prove who you think you need to be?

Why Ronnie
Coached from experience.Not theory alone.
Running has been part of my life for decades.
I've experienced the sport as a competitive athlete, endurance runner and author — and as someone maintaining serious training alongside the demands of senior corporate leadership and extensive international travel.
I've run fast. I've run long. I've got things right. And I've made plenty of mistakes.
What I've learned is that running performance cannot be separated from the rest of your life. That's ultimately what led to the Energy Leaks Framework and the philosophy behind Soul-Viva:
High performance matters.Sustainable high performance matters more.
The books
The thinking behind the running.
The psychology of the miles and the framework behind the philosophy — the same thinking your coaching is built on.

Who this is for
This could be for you if…
You're training for a meaningful goal.
You're ambitious about improving.
You have a demanding career or life outside running.
You've discovered that generic training plans don't understand your circumstances.
You travel frequently.
You want accountability.
You want someone looking at the bigger picture rather than simply increasing your mileage.
You care about performance. But you also want to be able to keep doing this.
You don't need to be elite.You do need to be committed.
Honesty first
This probably isn't for you if…
You simply want a downloadable training schedule.
You want someone to tell you to run harder regardless of what your body is telling you.
You're unwilling to communicate honestly about training and recovery.
You're looking for shortcuts.
This is collaborative coaching. I'll bring the thinking, structure, experience and accountability. You bring the commitment.
