We build around your goals, training history and the time you have, then adjust as you respond. You can discuss the purpose behind key sessions and training decisions. Remote coaching and VDOT are included.
You don't need to run fast to take your goals seriously. From a first 5K to a personal best, coaching can bring structure, context and thoughtful adjustments.
All three options are individualized. The difference is whether you want a defined race block, ongoing support or a higher-touch coaching relationship.
A focused 3–6 month build from where you are now to race day.
Continuous programming, feedback and adjustment across training blocks, races and seasons.
More frequent review, communication and support around training decisions.
We establish your priorities, explain the purpose of the work and use your training response and feedback to decide what comes next.
Goals, schedule, current fitness and real-life constraints shape the training block.
Workouts, workload, feedback and life changes inform what comes next.
Pacing, race-week decisions and event strategy are part of the build, not an afterthought.
For runners who enjoy understanding their training, Tempered is developing a one-on-one program that teaches you how to plan a training block, interpret workload and workouts, and adjust when life or fitness changes.
Sweat testing, lactate testing and heat-performance services can be added when they answer a specific training or race question. They are tools, not requirements for being coached.
Start with the goal. We can decide whether a Race Build, ongoing coaching or something lighter makes the most sense.
