We all train to get fitter and faster. We train to build strength and stamina but if we need to find that little bit extra we need to know more about our bodies and how to reach those levels. Hopefully these links will take you that step further.

www.purplepatchrunning.com - We believe that running, at every level, should be challenging, achievable and enjoyable.  All too often, however, we get caught up in the day to day stresses and strains of fitting in runs, staying motivated, finding new routes, finding new running partners, achieving times, etc.  At the end of the day, however, we feel better when we run than when we don’t so don’t let these niggles put you off your stride…...We at Purple Patch strive to offer you that extra something.  Not ‘just a running weekend’ but a quality, informative, engrossing, fun weekend.  Not ‘just coaching’ but targeted, innovative, personalised guidance.  Racing events that challenge all your senses, not just your stopwatch (or wallet!). There is no better way to make sure that the time and effort you spend training is effective and appropriate than one-on-one Coaching.  For a small monthly amount (about the same amount as you spend on your newspapers!) you can have a personalised programme and ongoing support & advice via email, telephone or face to face. We look forward to hearing from you …..Chris & Claire  www.purplepatchrunning.com
