Phase Two
Personal Running Coach
In phase two, a personable coach will help you evaluate where you currently are and what needs to be done to get where you want to be. In order to know your goals, it's important to know the person.
Phase Three
Running Training Plan
Coaches will then create a weekly training plan tailored to your work/life schedule and your goals. We will monitor your progress week to week, then advance as necessary. Communication will be made via phone and email to guide progress. Plans will be adjusted as necessary to get the running transformation you're looking for.
-
Do I need a watch?No, Coaches can help guide you through your training based on manually entered activities. However, the added data that can be attained from a watch will increase the accuracy of your training exponentially.
-
Do I need computer?No, our training software can be used directly from your smart phone.
-
How do I pay?Trail Transformation accepts all major credit cards, as well as Paypal. Once you start your coaching package, your coach will guide you through our simple payment process.
-
Am I good enough for a coach?Absolutely, runners of all abilities benefit from coaching. Coaching not only gives you short term training goals, but also aids in injury prevention.
-
What do I do if I need to change things on the plan?Communication is key! Your coach will be happy to help you adjust things in a way that best meets your schedule. The best way to contact your coach is via email, but if it's urgent—such as changing a workout the day of—a text message will likely work best.
-
Can you help me with a road race?Absolutely, Trail Transformation has coaches that specialize in all areas of running.
-
I’m just getting started in running, is that ok?"Yes, the start of running is one of the best times to work with a coach. Often new runners try to do too much too soon and end up getting injured. Another benefit of working with a running coach early, is they can help you break any bad habits before they are truly formed.
-
Can I be trained for a race like a fast 5k, half marathon, or Boston qualifier?"Yes, both Coach Michael and Coach Tyler have had lots of success on the roads and know what it takes to perform well in these events.
-
I’m not signed up for a race, I just want to run injury free. Can you help?"Yes, running is a lifelong sport. We're here to help you in any way possible.
-
I’m limited on time, can the program still help?"Absolutely, in fact time-crunched runners often benefit the most from a training plan. Instead of just getting out the door, our coaches can help you maximize the time you do have.
-
I’m currently injured, can you help me get back?"Yes, many of our coaches are Physical Therapists by trade and specialize in helping runners return to the sport they love.
-
I have a question for the coach, how do I reach out?"Shoot us an email at ClientServices@Trailtransformation.com
-
Can I request a specific coach?Yes, if you have a relationship with a coach already and are looking to work with them specifically, we will do our best to accommodate. That being said, our priority is always making sure that the client gets the coach that is best equipped to help them maximize their training.
-
I don't have a gym membership, how do I do the strength exercises?"The coaches will work with you to develop a routine that you can perform at home. The gym opens up opportunities for more exercises, but they can also be done at home.
-
I'm not close to any trails, how do I train for a trail race?"Our coaches have ways to simulate the challenges of a trail race. If you can run, then we can train you for a trail race.
The Trail Transformation Difference
Trail Transformation takes a holistic approach to coaching. We don’t simply coach you—we help you develop healthy habits that serve you for life. Many athletes who reach out to us are already injured, which is why we are committed to minimizing factors that can lead to injury down the road.
Coaching Philosophy
Higher mileage and intensity levels are not always better, especially for the longevity of a running career.
At Trail Transformation, we focus on developing a lifelong runner. It is our responsibility to forgo short-term success to protect the long-term health and development of the runner. We help all runners stay injury-free and train to their maximum potential, so they can reach their running goals.
