Testimonials

A year ago the idea of finishing UTS 100 was simply unachievable for me — injury after injury made my first year of running a nightmare. Kat's taken me from strength to strength, kept me injury free, and pushed me to levels I could not have achieved on my own.

At all stages Brennan has been incredibly helpful — patient, thorough and encouraging. Under his guidance I've improved from 40:xx to 34:19 for the 10K and from 1:54:40 to 1:15:37 for the half marathon. I've no doubt I've seen a far greater scale of improvement than I'd have achieved alone.

I'm 53 and having a coach for the first time has been a revelation. In the last year I've run fell races at PB pace — as fast as I've been for 10–15 years — and been course fastest finisher at the Great Lakeland 3 Day. I never imagined I'd perform at this level at this age.

I surprised myself in this race. Due to structured coaching and advice I was able to achieve this position. In 2019 I came 16th before we started working together. The training has been tailored to suit my work commitments — maximising available time and the terrain at hand.

Kat has been an outstanding coach. Her knowledge, dedication and personalised approach has made a huge difference to both my performance and my confidence on the trails. I always feel supported and well prepared going into races.

Working with Brennan has completely changed how I approach training. He has an incredible ability to balance hard sessions with adequate recovery, and always explains the reasoning behind the plan. My race results speak for themselves.
