“I reached out to Arran to help with training for a hill run. What the run was exactly was wasn't fully formulated, but he helped me flesh the ideas with what was feasible. The programme he put together for me was ambitious, but that was what I asked for, and suited me and my goals. Notably it worked into what I was already doing, and knowing what workouts could be shifted (and the important ones that couldn't) was super helpful. My original plan didn't work out when I got injured, but he was really responsive when I was looking to modify the programme to meet new (less ambitious) goals. He was full of helpful tips and advice, and enabled me to run the last 14 miles the west highland way. Not only that but I felt strong, and the run felt amazing throughout. A non zero chunk of that came to reworking the plan buildup and knowing how and when to de-load. So yeah, had a great experience. Thank you Arran.”

“Arran helped build a plan for me to do Glencoe Marathon and was super pleased with it . I liked that it was more about type of runs and zones rather than run at this pace for this run . It meant I listened to my body and how I felt rather than trying to hit a particular pace. The strength/core/plyometric work outs built into the plan helped . I saw huge improvements and found I could fit it into my schedule even when I was busy with work”

““Arran is a brilliant coach that I would recommend to anyone starting out ultra running or more of a seasoned ultra runner. He’s personable and really aims to find the ‘why’ in order for you to be the best runner you can be. I enjoyed the holistic approach that Arran took to coaching, covering topics such as the science behind nutrition, pacing and running techniques whilst also exploring skills that further developed the ‘self’. I wholeheartedly recommend Arran as a coach. His support and guidance have been instrumental in my own ultra-running journey, and I believe he would be a great fit for anyone looking to improve.””
