Testimonial

“I had nervously committed to running the Melbourne Marathon, despite never having run more than 16km in one go and only having run 10km 5 other times in my life. I have tried a wide variety of different plans in the past and always found myself stopping halfway through as I kept getting injured or lost motivation.

I decided to step up my commitment and started working with Brock at Best Stride Running, he came highly recommended by people that I trust and after I started working with him, I could tell why.

Every step of the way I felt supported, challenged, and confident that I would achieve my goal. The running program was built on a foundation of consistency and a nice balance of easy and fast runs. In the early days of the program, it was really encouraging that Brock tailored the program around what got the best out of me. He ensured that I was not only building my fitness base, but also building my confidence in my running ability, week by week, session by session.

By using this technique and a foundation of consistency, I was able to continue to build even through the mini breaks that I had to take due to the classic winter illnesses that come up and little niggles when I pushed myself a bit too hard in other pursuits.

My biggest challenge came less than two weeks out from the marathon when I developed a chest infection. I strongly considered pulling out of the event and kept an open dialogue with Brock to express this concern. His advice once I received medical clearance really gave me confidence that I could push through – he kept telling me that I’ve done the work and not to worry about everything else.

To further illustrate Brock’s passion, I was 32km into the marathon and ready to give up – I looked down and had a message from Brock (who had just finished his personal best time in the same marathon) giving me incredibly positive feedback. In his time of personal achievement, he was still thinking about his athletes, those actions speak volumes about a person’s character.

I went from not committing to a plan for more than 6 weeks to running 4 times per week for 5 months and had the euphoric feeling of running into the MCG to complete my first ever marathon. Brock was such a huge part of that journey for me, and I can never thank him enough for that.

I can’t recommend Brock at Best Stride Running highly enough, give him a call and see where it takes you, it took me further than I could have ever imagined."
