Team Coaching

RunUrban provides highly engaging coached training sessions for running teams and training groups at all levels of ability. For example, if you are part of a charity team, a university/college running squad or a running club in need of an experienced endurance coach and team manager then please get in touch with Coach Urban here (Contact Form).

Coach Urban has a great track record of raising standards and provides a fun and filling training environment where everybody can perform to their best ability. Unlike other coaches with a more short-term focus, Coach Urban has provided long-term athlete development which resulted in significant improvement on an individual and team levels on a year-by-year basis

Team Coaching – Why?

No doubt it is more fun to train together with your team mates instead of running alone around the running track. Having someone to chase down the finishing line can be very motivating.

At the same time those who are not running at the front appreciate the additional support through the team and get further encouragement.

In my experience as a running coach looking after groups I have always had very positive experiences with the individual coaches and the training group as a whole.

For the more advanced athlete having a strong training group with runners at a similar level of ability often leads to new running success. Sharing the work during hard interval sessions and encouragement often release new untapped potential.
