Personalized Endurance Coaching
A clear plan. Weekly adjustments. A coach in your corner.
One-to-one coaching for marathons, ultra-marathons, triathlons and multi-sport adventures.
Work directly with Coach Rick to build training around your goals, your life and how your body responds.
What working together looks like
Start with your goals and training history
We begin by discussing your event, experience, current training and available time. We look at what has worked, where you’ve struggled and what you need to prepare for your next goal.
That gives us the starting point for your individual training plan.
Get your training through Final Surge
Your workouts are delivered through the Final Surge coaching platform, where you can see your schedule, record your sessions and share feedback.
Each week’s training is planned after reviewing the previous week, so your plan reflects how you’re actually doing.
Have your training reviewed every week
I review your completed workouts and feedback weekly. We adjust your training as needed to account for progress, fatigue, recovery and changes in your schedule.
Your feedback helps shape those decisions. How a session felt matters alongside the numbers.
Stay connected between workouts
You can contact me through Final Surge with questions about your training and expect a response within 24 hours.
A monthly video call gives us time to discuss your progress, upcoming goals, race strategy, fuelling and any challenges that need more attention.
Prepare for the demands of your event
As your event approaches, we work through pacing, fuelling and race execution. For ultras and multi-sport adventures, that includes preparing for the terrain, duration and specific demands you’ll face.
Incorporating O2Max findings into your training
For athletes who want a deeper understanding of their physiology, separate services through O2Max can help inform their training.
This involves a VO2max test followed by an O2Max assessment of the results. O2Max translates those findings into training recommendations, which I can incorporate into your ongoing coaching plan.
VO2max testing and O2Max assessment are separate from the monthly coaching service and are not included in the coaching fee.
We can discuss this option during your consultation.
