Meet Dan
Running changed my life.
I started running in 2018, chasing a bit of discipline and a better headspace. A year later I finished my first marathon, after the injuries, the overtraining and every classic rookie mistake.
It taught me that one size fits all plans don’t work. Now I get to know each runner’s goals, lifestyle and reasons for running then build a program that’s theirs.
I coach runners of all levels, from a first 5K to a full marathon PB or running simply to feel better. If you’re ready to start or restart your running, I’d love to be part of it.
Runners
Finish lines they didn’t think were possible
“Eight months ago, I was running 5km. Two weeks ago, I crossed the finish line of the Melbourne Half Marathon! Dan kept me accountable, motivated, and actually made the whole journey fun.”
“Going from being able to run 10km to 21.1 was a challenge and something that I did not think was possible. With the support and guidance from Daniel I was able to achieve this goal.”
“Thanks to his support, I completed my first half marathon and am excited to aim for my next race. Dan’s dedication and care make him an exceptional coach.”
FAQ
Before you start
Do I need to be an experienced runner?
No. I coach complete beginners through to marathoners chasing PBs. Every plan is built around your starting point and availability.
Is there a minimum commitment?
Ongoing coaching is month to month with no lock-in. I want you to stay because you’re improving, not because you have to.
Do I need a GPS watch?
It helps but isn’t essential. A running app on your phone is enough to get started.
I can only run twice a week. Is coaching still worth it?
Yes. A recent runner of mine trained for his first half marathon running twice a week. We focus on quality sessions and consistency.
Can I upgrade from the blueprint to ongoing coaching?
Absolutely. I can credit part of the blueprint cost to your first month, depending on where you are in the plan.
How does Final Surge work?
Your plan lives in the Final Surge app on iPhone, Android or the web. It syncs with Strava, Garmin and Apple, and it’s where we talk about every session.
