Improve Your 5K / Parkrun — Premium Coaching Programme

This 10‑week coaching programme is designed to help you make real progress with your 5K/Parkrun. Each week you’ll get two 1‑to‑1 sessions - always one interval session, and the second can be either another interval or a paced continuous run together, like a tempo run. You’ll also have a personalised plan and ongoing support to keep you focused and moving in the right direction each week.  

Stick with the plan, stay consistent, and you’ll give yourself the best chance of getting a new PB or your fastest time of the year. And if that doesn’t happen, you’ll get £50 back as part of my performance guarantee.

Payment Options

Option 1: £200 now, £200 at week 4, £200 at week 8

Option 2: £300 now, £300 at week 5

Option 3: £600 up front

If you'd prefer to try a 1‑to‑1 session before committing, a one‑off intro session is £20.

Greg – 5K/Parkrun Coach

I’m Greg, a Manchester‑based running coach working with runners both locally and online through Improve Your Run. I specialise in helping people improve their 5K and Parkrun times, and I have a Degree in Sport Science with Coaching plus the UK Athletics LIRF and CIRF qualifications. I’m an active club runner with experience across events from the 800m on the track to the Marathon on the road.

Although I coach a range of distances, my main focus is 5K and Parkrun performance. I’ve completed over 100 Parkruns, with 29 finishes between 18–19 minutes and a personal best of 17:40. This experience helps me understand exactly what it takes to run your best over 5K.
