From Angela

Here's One of Our Runners.

She's a teacher. Her PR was 3:52. Her BQ target was 3:35.

She'd tried before. Too many miles at a moderate effort. A hamstring that kept flaring up.

We changed the plan. Polarized training. Strength built in. Injury prevention from day one.

She ran 3:33:47. Boston qualifier by 1:13.

The goal

Qualify With Room to Spare.

Hitting your standard is step one. Getting in is step two. A BQ isn't automatic entry, so we coach you to run with a buffer.

How it works

Coaching, Not a Template.

We start from your real week

The days you can really run. Work, travel, kids, sleep. Not the mileage a template wants.

Your paces are yours

Built from your own Critical Speed, from runs you actually complete. Most of your week stays easy.

Push, hold or pull back

Every week your coach reads your pace, heart rate, HRV and how you felt. Then decides what comes next.

Physiology sets the direction. Your life sets the dose.

That's the StressLogic System. Your stress budget is training, work, family and sleep together.

Real life happens

When Life Gets Loud, Your Week Changes.

Missed a run?

It's gone, and that's fine. We don't cram it into Saturday. We build next week from how this one really went.

Niggles and tight hamstrings

Tell your coach early. We change the week before a niggle becomes an injury.

Recovery when you need it

No recovery week penciled in on a calendar. When your data and your week say you need it, you get it.

Training anywhere

Your plan lives in TrainingPeaks. You run, your data comes in, your coach adjusts.
