Earlier this year I finished the IM Texas with help of your training program. I didn’t follow it 100%, but having a training plan was a great way of keeping track. I got a PR with 20 minutes faster compared to last year (11:40).

I completed my first HALF DISTANCE this week. Thank you so much for the beginner training plan! The event was a blast, and I surprisingly completed/finished feeling strong. I was actually amazed that I was not tired during the run and I owe a lot of that to your plan. I am already browsing what other plans you have out there!
Both me and my wife are using 36 weeks full-distance training program from smartendurancesolution, this will be her first full full-distance and my third full full-distance. This program we use now is specially made for full-distance Italy / emilia – romania by smartendurancesolution. So i have good comperance on other programs, I highly recommend smartendurancesolution full-distance training plan.
Coach,
Just wanted to say thank you—your prep plan delivered.
I finished 2:52:58, placed 15th overall, and got 1st in my age group. At 201 lbs and heavy muscle, I felt steady and strong all day.
Appreciate your guidance—this result was a goal hit, and I’m proud of the work we put in.
I worked with Steve in achieving my goal of completing a full FULL DISTANCE. I found Steves Training plan very structured and easy to use but flexible enough to change when needed.
Completed my FULL DISTANCE and I continue to use Steve’s Training plans to stay fit.
Have loved reading the SMartEnduro Community updates and motivational stories over the past year. Have done a few sprints and Olympics during the season but waited until my A race to post. Firstly, thanks to coach Steve for setting out a progressive and challenging training programme. I won’t lie, I didn’t stick to it meticulously but it was great motivation when other things, covid, family, life, posed distractions!!
Very thankful to Steve for putting together a plan for me to help make sure I’m ready to go for FULL DISTANCE Cork 2022! Definitely come to Steve if you’re looking for something similar. The turnaround time was super quick and the plan is very thorough. Couldn’t recommend more highly.
Loved the plan – it has taught me a lot and put me on track to compete in my first tri race (olympic).
It has been a very exciting 4 years working with Steve. At the start of wash Eason we set challenging but achievable goals with a plan that is tailored to the athlete, not the other way around and one that is adaptable to life’s general obstacles! Not only is data reviewed in detail, but how the athlete feels is also considered in each block. Not only have I achieved personal goals, I have even podiumed a number of times. Could not recommend coach Steve enough!
I have just purchased your 12-week plan HALF DISTANCE base/maintenance plan and am really looking forward to it as the plan itself is very clear and well structured. Will keep you posted how I get on.
Third B race of the year nailed on Saturday in horrendous heat! Moray Coastal 50..a 47 mile trail Ultra marathon…goal was to finish that new distance uninjured.
Super chuffed…your balance of IM training for later in the year and double runs/long runs worked a treat..was a tough gig on the day but that’s to be expected in the heat. Thanks again for the tailored plan!
Massive thanks again Steve, means a lot achieving these goals
Incredibly happy with these results. This is probably the first time I’ve ever completed an actual program for a specific event and it was a great experience.
Happy return to racing yesterday at the Nottingham Outlaw Half!
5 weeks ago I was seriously doubting my ability to finish, and started looking ahead to my A race – Weymouth HALF DISTANCE in September. With a little help from Smart Endurance Solutions in adapting a newly purchased plan (for Weymouth) in order to get me to the start line yesterday I managed to surpass my expectations of the day and finished the half marathon super strong! Thanks Coach Steve 👍
