We Run: The UK's Local Running Coach Reviews 310

The training plan which I was sent over regarding to the event which I had signed up for was absolutely fantastic. It made the training a lot more enjoyable than just going about it all your own way. I was new to running apart from completing a GNR & then I had a plan for a ultramarathon which I had signed up for straight after. I had only ever ran 18miles but the plan helped me massively to be able to complete the event which ended at 37.4miles.

I'm a endurance runner being for 15 years have been running with couple of running coaches 2021 was my last marathon i had done but after that was a down fall with injuries and confidence was really down but last year I found kate who helped me alot from from scratch we started with 5 miles to 60 miles a week and really enjoying and full of confidence and I will recommend her to anyone who is looking for a running coach really good and professional and knows he job

Everything was very quick and efficient and the training plan delivered what I wanted. Alexa took the time to talk to me prior to creating the plan which was very useful.

Kate was very supportive and was always happy to amend the schedule to suit my needs. I would highly recommend.

The results speak for themselves. I reduced my 10k PB by 1:30 and ran a sub 35 minute 10k for the first time all thanks to the plan provided by Kate. My training prior to Kate’s guidance was similar to the plan I used from Kate but wasn’t generating the results. Kate provided a few small tweaks (no extra volume required, but tweaks to my interval training) and the results are amazing and 100% achieved because of Kates guidance. It felt easier to run so much faster than it did when I was in mid 36 minute shape and I think there is more to come, the best thing is the plan is reusable for my new goals too! Thank you Kate!

Adam is a great coach. As a plus size runner I was nervous that I’d be laughed out of the park when I decided to get serious about running but From our first session and throughout Adam has been encouraging of my progress and has given me great advice on warmup drills and form. He continues this support now through our Strava friendship even though I now run solo. Would definitely recommend him to others.

I've been working with Alexa since 2019, and she's guided me through multiple events from 10k to UK and overseas marathons. In addition to personal coaching, with phone calls and WhatsApp check-ins, there is a fantastic resource of pre-recorded audio runs and videos for cross-training. Everything can be tailored and personalised and will work around your level, ability, goal and lifestyle. My personalk experience is that Alexa's knowledge is extensive and current, and she works closely with you around all aspects of preparation and training, not just the runs themselves,

I've had a fantastic experience working with Graeme from We Run. He's incredibly knowledgeable, pragmatic in his approach, and always quick to respond to any questions or adjustments needed. His coaching style is clear and effective, helping me progress steadily while keeping my training both challenging and manageable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for expert guidance!

Kate, gentle person and amazing coach, has truly helped me realize my running potential. She has proven to be incredibly insightful and knowledgeable, taking me on the path of improvement, engineering a training structure and schedule around my work and my abilities. 2 years with her, 5 marathons and over 500 runs later, all PBs have fallen multiple times and I couldn't be happier or more grateful!

No issues at all! Any communications I have had with coach or other people in the company have been very easy and trouble free. The system works very well and nothing negative to say.
From the first meeting to now almost 2 years later the relationship built is great, seamless pairing of workouts through garmin and training with peaks makes everything much more easier and more professional too. Meaning you can focus on the running 100%!!

My experience with We Run was excellent! So many resources provided to help me including audio runs, strength and pilates work to help and my coach, Alexa, stuck with me motivating me when I wasn't motivated and times were tough and I built so much progress on my running ability maintaining more of a routine and getting back on track at times when i fell off track. also knew when to refer to physiotherapist for any injuries and was just overall excellent motivation

Harriet is a great trainer and has really helped me with my goals

Coach Bex has great expertise, matched with great care. She took time to ask questions about my running experience before we met, and really listened to what I felt I needed. She carefully analysed my running, talked me through (with encouragement and without judgement) the areas I could work on, and sent a wonderfully detailed report.
All in all, a brilliant experience with Coach Bex through We Run.

Amanda was great to work with, so supportive. It was a very collaborative experience working together.

Monty is a great coach being inspiring and attentive to technique and performance

A member for 3.5years - I was coached by Alexa after joining We Run in July 21. Great group support on Facebook, vast collective experience and huge and diverse resources on all aspects of running, physios and coaches. Alexa is incredible - so knowledgeable, adaptive and kind - she wrote exciting training plans where virtually nothing was repeated all these years and fits the training around your life commitments and bespoke to your health so it fits, the plans push you enough to keep improving and motivate. I went from a non runner to running 100mile ultras. Within my first year I had a marathon time of 3:41 and ran a 47 mile ultra in my 50's. If you just join as a monthly member you still get so much support and practical information.

Kate is just absolutely fantastic.
She is patient, supportive, understanding.
I am generally under a lot of pressure in life and she was always so reassuring.
She also knew that I didn’t like running…and that was also ok! I managed to achieve a few goals with her and it felt so good. Thank you!

I had the pleasure of working with Coach Alexa from We Run for 8 months, starting as a novice runner with the goal of completing a half marathon. Thanks to her expert guidance and sustainable training plan, I achieved my goal in just 6 months. Alexa is an incredibly knowledgeable and supportive coach, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their running.

Fantastic planning, easy to follow and always available! What more could you ask for - thank you Alexa

It was easy to find a running coach thanks to WeRun.

Rob was very useful and observed my running techniques and informed me on how I can improve in different ways. He challenged me on some drills to really see the type of runner I am.

Rob is clearly an expert in this field
