| Run Coaching |
|
As a competitive runner for over 15 years, I have extensive experience with training for distances from the mile to the 50K. Our run coaching is affordable and offer the chance for high levels of interaction between coach and athlete. Our plans revolve around the simple idea of maximizing the fun of your runs while making you better thorough consistent training. Nothing slows you down more than an injury and an experienced coach can help you navigate the process of going faster and farther. There are many training plans freely available on the web, in books or in magazines. Many of these plans have a good deal to offer. They were written, however, for a combination of many different runners. You are not that runner. Our training packages establish a season long training blueprint based on your present level of fitness, what limits your best results, your overall goals, and most importantly, what makes you love running. Peak Performance Marathon Plan These plans are aimed at the runner trying to perform at the marathon distance. We customize a training plan to account for present level of fitness, race goals and overall strengths and weaknesses in relation to the athlete’s goal race. These plans generally last for 20 weeks, although the length can be adjusted. Workouts are delivered every week, thereby maximizing coach and athlete communication and the success of workouts as they are based on the most recent training. A running gait analysis is also included. Cost - $250 for the 20 week plan. Costs may be prorated for different length plans. Premium Running Package Founded on the idea that coaching gets best results when athlete and coach are in contact frequently, our run coaching includes unlimited phone and email contact and workouts delivered weekly. Also included is an account in TrainingPeaks, a web based training analysis program. This program is the leader in online training analysis and allows for a thorough analysis of training data. A running gait analysis is also included. Cost - $50 per month Information and Ordering Please drop Coach Jason an email Jason@digittri.com or give him a call at (612) 723-0233 to discuss our run coaching.
