Scientist, coach and endurance runner Chris White-Gloria, PhD founded Tempered after years spent questioning how different approaches to training work for different athletes.

What Tempered does

Coaching and physiology, built around the athlete.

Coaching and testing address different needs, but both begin with your goals and the decisions that can help you move forward.

Running coaching

A training plan that fits the race and the rest of your life.

Individualized coaching from 5K through ultramarathon, including race builds, ongoing coaching and higher-touch support. Available remotely and in Calgary.

  • Training built around your goals, experience and schedule
  • Regular adjustments, feedback and race strategy
  • VDOT training platform included
Sport physiology

Testing that helps answer a useful question.

Mobile physiology and field testing for runners and endurance athletes, with practical interpretation rather than numbers for their own sake.

  • Sweat testing and hydration guidance
  • Lactate thresholds and training-intensity guidance
  • Thermal monitoring and heat preparation
Tempered Race Build

Preparing for a specific race?

A focused coaching block takes you from where you are now to race day with an individualized plan, regular adjustments, coach feedback and a clear race strategy.

  • Individualized training plan
  • Regular adjustments and performance review
  • Race-week planning and execution strategy
Applied sport science

Sport science in the real world.

Field testing, wearable monitoring and physiology are useful when they answer a real question and change what happens next.

Calgary Rowing Club

Thermal responses during erg performance and applied questions around cooling and heat strain.
