Struggling To Improve Your Marathon Time?

Every plan I create is tailored to your specific requirements. When you select and pay for your chosen plan I'll email you a link in your payment receipt to complete the Athlete Profile form. The information you send me in the Athlete Profile will form the basis of the plan I build for you.

And hey, if you later feel it's not for you just request a refund within 30 days and I'll return your payment in full.

Your plan will be built around your level of experience and primary marathon goal, so the plan should be just right for you. However, personal circumstances change, so you'll have a chance to pose questions and make amendments to your plan during our monthly coaching call. You can also message me directly via email.

No matter what plan you choose you'll have Premium Membership access to the full library of training videos and resources on The Smart Runner. These videos will show you the exact form needed to get the most out of each exercise.

You'll also get access to the FREE weekly training video publish for Premium Members every Monday morning. This weekly training video will offer you extra training, flexibility, mobility, run technique drills for that week.

If you chose "Personal" or "Elite" training you'll have my 1-2-1 tuition to guide you.

When you purchase any of the above plans you will automatically be added as a Premium Member. You'll receive an email from me with links to login to your account area content and associated Premium Member Pages.

You can opt out of Marathon Coaching at any time. When you do your Premium Membership will expire and you will no longer have access to Premium content including Videos Library, PDF downloads, Weekly Training Videos and other content.

Yes you can. It is really affordable at only €14 per month and you'll have access to the always growing library of Premium Member content. Note that Premium Membership does not include customised training plans or coaching.

Given how things are currently structured I'm afraid that's not possible . I've streamlined the coaching services here on The Smart Runner to meet the needs of as many people as possible given the limited time I have available. So if you need a consultation then best to purchase the Personal Coaching Plan for one month, then cancel and purchase the Online Coaching plan.

If you choose the Online package you'll have access to one group online coaching webinar per month (not exceeding 20 members per group session). If you can't join in live, then you can catch it later in the members area.

If you choose Personal Coaching you have access to one private online coaching call, or private face to face training session per month. If you choose Elite you have access to four private online coaching calls, or private face to face training sessions per month (one per week).

In the private sessions we'll analyse your training and rest data and make necessary modifications to your training plan. We'll also take the time to manage your concerns, goals and expectations and discuss your progress. In the group sessions online the discussions of course will be more general in nature rather than athlete specific.

When you purchase coaching you'll be invited to our private The Smart Runner Club on Garmin Connect. There you'll need to upload your training and at-rest data daily so I can monitor your progress. Don't have a Garmin? You can shop for one here

If you choose online coaching, I'll review your progress on Garmin Connect and modify your plan for the coming month to suit. If you are a Personal or Elite client I'll also review your progress on Garmin Connect and modify your plan, however with these plans I will relay those changes to you face to face.

I will share a private Google Drive folder with you where you will have access to your training plan on a monthly basis tailored exactly to your needs and training progress. (Eventually we will move these files to the members area).

Your plan will be built with your specific needs in mind so sharing with others may not be the greatest service to them. Besides, you've paid for it. Better that they come to me and have their own plan created specifically for them. That aside, all training material, video content etc is the copyright of Larry G. Maguire and The Smart Runner and is not for resale or distribution beyond you the client without specific written permission. This is in line with our boring (but necessary) website Terms & Conditions.

Were coaching is "Online"; at the end of every month we'll get together for 1 hour in a webinar setting and discuss your training needs and concerns. Here you will have an opportunity to have your training and nutrition questions answered directly by me. If you can't make the webinar then you can catch it later in the members area.
