Just wanted to say ended up with 2 PBs this season from one of your marathon plans – a B race half marathon PB (complete bonus – very happy) and nailed my A race marathon goal – thank you and happy holidays to you and your family Coach Steve

Thank you Coach Steve
I followed your training plan for a full full-distance last year. It helped me get 20 minutes of my previous PR.!!
Grabbed a nice age group win in my first tri of the season yesterday – helped of course by your training plan! 🙂
Steve’s plan was really great. I felt very well-prepared and ready my first HALF DISTANCE. I remember my first Olympic – done with some self-training/a tri club, no real “plan” per se – being anxious about the race. After using this training plan, I knew I could complete the race before I stepped foot on the course – it almost felt easy! Looking forward to using Steve’s plans again for my first FULL DISTANCE!
Thanks so much (for guidance on best plan to choose) and love the plan already
Overall, I’ve got almost 18 mins faster using your training plans even though lots didn’t go to plan on race day, so the positive is that next year I’ll have another big jump in time 😉
Cheers coach!
Honestly I couldn’t recommend these plans enough this is my second plan and I’ve loved it again. Plus my emails are always answered within 10 minutes of sending !
Hi Steve,
I really liked your trainig plan for my HALF DISTANCE this year. I have the intermediate 30 week plan. The transformation I have done through over the last several months is astounding!
Smart Endurance Solutions Made me an FULL DISTANCE 2018!!!
Didn’t have to think about a thing! Followed the plan and the rest follows! QED
Previously coached by Steve in 2016 when undertaking Full IM training. 5 years, 3 kids and a few stone later I'm back working with Steve, training towards FULL DISTANCE Cork HALF DISTANCE in August 2021. Steve has tailored my training excellently to allow for family and work commitments as well as dilligently managing my training load to reduce the risk of injury and allow consistent progress. As ever, Steve is personable, easy going and flexible, always putting the athlete first. Would highly recommend!
Since day one taking up triathlon in 2008 Stephen has been a massive reason why I’ve stuck with triathlon and enjoyed it to the extent that I have. He couldn’t do more to encourage and help those around him and is incredibly generous with both his time and knowledge. I’ve benefitted greatly from his technical knowledge and expertise, but it’s his absolute love of the sport and the passion that he brings to coaching that in my mind allows him to stand out as a coach. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
I bought your Olympic program and completed my Olympic yesterday, in a PB of minus 14 mins, I felt great and was delighted.
So I managed a 4/27 (missed 3rd by 2 minutes or so) for T100 in the 51 year age group. Finished really really strong. Thanks to coach for the training plan. On track for NZ world champs.
