from 4 reviewsWorking with Simon as my running coach has been an absolute game-changer for me. His expertise goes far beyond just improving my pace; he has transformed my entire approach to running. The personalized training program has been tailored to my goals, ensuring each session pushed me to new limits while preventing burnout or injury, which as a middle aged guy I have had issues with in the past.
Simon kept me honest, gently calling me out if I was struggling with consistency and his motivational strategies and insightful advice helped me overcome mental barriers, boosting my confidence on and off the track.
Thanks to Simon’s expertise and unwavering commitment, I've not only become a better runner but also a more resilient individual. I wholeheartedly recommend Simon as a running coach to anyone seeking not just improvements in their running but a holistic transformation in their athletic journey.
Thanks so much
This 10km training plan really boosted my running fitness, speed and confidence. It allowed me to achieve my fastest 10km times and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking to achieve their running goals.
Simon’s coaching has been instrumental in supporting me to achieve my running goals as well as garnering a better understanding of how to get the best out of my training without increasing my risk of injury. Simon has helped get the right balance for me incorporating both the physical and mental aspects of running. His ability to motivate others is outstanding. Simon’s positive outlook ensures the journey is enjoyable and the destination (goal) takes care of itself. I look forward to achieving more goals in 2024 with Rhodesrunner.
Simon is an excellent coach, he positively encouraged me to complete my program and helped smash out a new 1500m and 800m personal best. He consistently motivated me to be the best version of myself and got my head in the right space and race ready with the right strategy.
Simon had unwavering support for me throughout my journey and offered brilliant advice and support to me when I needed it. He kept me responsible and in control of my training load and was very good at reminding me what my focus and what my "why" was.
Overall Simon is the best coach I have had in my time of running. Which is why I definitely recommend him as a coach to others as he has helped me to become more focused on my goals and a more disciplined athlete overall.
