Overview

At the age of 12 Coach Kev was the new kid on the block. His passions were sports and music...except he sucked at music and everyone on his new school's sports teams thought he was too 'husky'. Everything changed when he walked into a gym.

Cut to 2006 and Kev's working his way up the food chain at a corporate gym until he becomes the manager, eventually buying his own gym. Now in charge of a 1,600 square foot training facility, Kev has traded powerlifting for endurance running, tackling a half-marathon and marathon in 2012 alone.

From 10k runs and half-marathons to full marathons, Kev has worked with athletes looking to stay injury-free while pushing their bodies to their limits. Drawing from both his experience as a powerlifter and his time spent as 'the husky new kid', Kev works hard to ensure that his facility and his classes are safe, welcoming, fun and structured.

The class places emphasis on continually evolving and never settling - if you want to run further than you ever have beforeminimize the risk of injury and spend 12 weeks being challenged like never before then you're in the right place!

FAQs

How long does it take to get faster?
2-3 weeks to notice a difference. Adding speed and interval workouts to the mix increases your stride length, and doing hill workouts improves your strength. Those strength gains take time to be noticed, and it also depends on how many times per week you're running
How many days a week do I need to do this program?
3 minimum, including 2 bodyweight strength workouts before or after a run (recommended before).
Why do I need mobility if I'm a runner?
Runners are prone to injury. In fact, almost 2 injuries per 20 week training cycle for the average marathon runner. Not good. Mobility in certain areas will help decrease potential for injury and maximize performance.
Can I use a treadmill?
Yes, but running outside or on a track is preferred.
What about barefoot running?
Nope, you'll need your sneakers!
