It works….but dont take my word for it –
“I recently foolishly signed up to run in the Great South Run. I have run for some time but had become set in a fairly safe pattern of 5k runs at a steady pace. I felt that I needed a push to motivate me to complete this 10 mile run and wanted to prove to myself that I could complete it in a good time. Mark provided that motivation through a series of 8 personal training sessions that gave me the confidence to run faster and longer. Through a combination of workouts, running sessions, hill sprints, the Victory 10k race and a 10 mile training run around Lee-on-the-Solent, Mark encouraged me to extend my range and speed. I supplemented this with weekly runs to put what I learnt into practice. I completed the Great South Run in 80 minutes, averaging 8 minute miles. I am delighted with this result and would recommend Mark to anyone considering personal training as a way of kick starting them on their next fitness challenge.”
