The Ultra Running Coach Arvostelua 

Let me start by saying I am a middle of the pack average female runner who woke up one day and thought it would be a good idea to run a 200+ mile race (clearly a midlife crisis), my 2nd brainwave (and the smarter one) was that I was going to need some help which is where Howard came into my life.
Working with Howard was amazing; with his help I not only achieved my goal of running a 200+ miler, but I also ran my road marathon pb and a sub 24 hour 100 miler. He put in training that I wouldn't of thought of and kept me motivated during the inevitable low spots. Howard looked at all the elements of my life, from diet to sleep to training to work life to ensure I had a tailored plan that worked best for me.
Having a coach isn't just for the elites its for anyone trying to achieve a lifetime goal.

I moved to Howard recently having been with a “better known” coach for 5 years and it’s been transformational. Howard’s attention to detail, his planning, his interaction and regular check-ins are brilliant. His approach to my running plans are personalised to my goals, really well structured and adapted on the go if I need to make changes due to life! I’m approaching 50, and have been running for over half my life yet I’m now learning new things about myself and my abilities thanks to Howard! 100% recommend to all runners of all abilities, experiences and goals.

This is my 3rd season with the ultra running coach, very happy with the service provided, regular communication, very knowledgeable and tailored running program to suit all levels of athletes. A lot of time spent making sure your training works around your lifestyle, top Class coach.

I initially signed up with Howard with a goal to run my first Ultra with only a small amount of running and racing knowledge.

In just a few months my fitness and confidence in road and trail running has dramatically improved. Really excited to see where the next 6 months go in the build up to my first ultra.

Howard’s quick to respond, full of knowledge and definitely a great coach to work with no matter your goal weather you’re just starting off running or have been running for years.

Thanks Howard- excited for the next year :)

He changed my running for the best! His knowledge on nutrition has completely changed my fueling which has helped me exceed all my expectations with running. With the right his recommendation I managed to run a 17:24 5km and a 3:10 marathon with limited training. Strongly recommend!!

I signed up with Howard after illness and injury meant I'd had sporadic breaks from running and was finding it hard to regain fitness. I love the routine, the sessions he adapts to my needs and I'm hopefully getting back to a stronger me where I feel better equipped to race again. Howard's always on the end of the phone willing to answer any of my questions.

I have been with Howard for 2 years now, seeking out professional help and guidance to train properly coming off the back of knee surgery. Howard has continued to provide me with the right programs, advice and support when I've needed it and listened to my complaints haha. I could not ask of anything else from him, I would highly recommend him to anyone who is wanting to dip their toe in being coached.

Started with Howard since February this year, had spoke loosely a year prior but never taken it up, I was super inconsistent and over training prior too starting, but especially over the 8 months I’ve been with Howard a few things: Love for running has come back, Volume and training been spot on & been a lot more consistent with a variety of blocks that have purpose.

With two races completed and more to come it’s been a pleasure, couldn’t recommend more.

Thanks, Andy

Howard is absolutely fantastic!
He’s so knowledgeable and especially about women’s training and their needs! Anything I need to change or any issues he adapts the plan and comes up with a solution! The plans he creates are fantastic I’m never left wondering what I’m supposed to be doing, there’s always a detailed check in in call after/before every training block and check ins weekly! My running has never been better or consistent!

I signed up to my second big race but lacked the knowledge of how to train for it. Howard set me a progressive plan that was specific to me which enabled me to smash my goal of finishing the race !

If I had any injuries or personal issues that affected training he was quick to reply & get the plan adjusted to suit.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thanks again, mate !
