Coaching for all road, trail and track running disciplines.
RacePace is not limited to 10 km, half marathon, marathon or Comrades. Training can be built around the demands of your specific road, trail, track or cross-country event.

The event shapes the training
Different disciplines place different demands on speed, endurance, strength, pacing, terrain skills and recovery. RacePace builds the training structure around the actual event rather than treating every runner as a marathoner.
Road disciplines
- 5 km, 10 km, 15 km, 21.1 km and other common road distances.
- Marathon and ultramarathon development.
- Comrades Marathon preparation.
- Road racing performance, pacing and progression goals.
- Beginners through experienced competitive runners.

Trail and track development
Trail and track sit at opposite ends of the running landscape in some ways, but both reward specificity. RacePace can build around the particular demands of each.
Trail & track
- Short, medium and long-distance trail running.
- Hill strength and terrain-specific preparation.
- Cross country and seasonal endurance development.
- Sprint and speed development.
- Middle-distance track events and longer track disciplines.

FAQ
Questions about road, trail, track and cross-country coaching.
Can RacePace help me improve my 5 km, 10 km, half marathon or marathon time?
Yes. Training can be built around your current fitness, training history and target race distance, with sessions designed to improve endurance, speed, threshold fitness and race-specific performance.
Will every training session be hard?
No. Good training uses a balance of easy running, quality sessions, recovery, endurance work and race-specific training. Hard sessions are most effective when they are supported by enough recovery.
How do I know what running pace I should train at?
Training pace should be based on the purpose of the session, your current ability and recent performances rather than using one pace for every workout.
