Online Run Coaching Services
When you’ve been coaching runners for over 25 years like we have, over time, many of our Houston area runners have relocated to other cities worldwide.
And when they get used to training with our Houston running family they really miss running with the group.
But with technology, we can now coach anyone world-wide online. Online coaching starts with a runner completing an online runner profile so we can assess where to start, appropriate pacing, mileage and goal races. From there we design an online training schedule specific to each runner’s goals and the races they have on their calendar. Training schedules are then accessible online or via a smartphone app so runners always know what mileage and pace to run at each day along with recommended cross-training, strength training and recovery days.
Unlike many online coaching services, we don’t solely rely on email communication. That’s way too cold and impersonal. We’ve found that it is very important to communicate with our online run coaching clients at least weekly via phone or a live video chat. It just works better and is like sitting down with your coach and talking running strategy over a cup of coffee. Video chats also allow us to explain running concepts by using screen capture to access online training schedules and online running resources. Each coaching session can also be recorded so online coaching athletes can review each coaching session later.
With most online clients, we recommend a weekly, 15 minute Skype call to check in, review and make adjustments to the training plan and discuss other things like injuries, training techniques, training schedules, recommended pacing, nutrition, flexibility, strength training, cross training, racing strategies and more.
