Marcus is knowledgeable, approachable and an experienced coach. Since training with Marcus I have knocked 4 minutes off my 10k time, improved in technique and confidence and he is now helping me prepare for my first marathon! His sessions are fun and challenging in equal measures and his thought process behind each one thoroughly explained. Would highly recommend Marcus to anyone looking to start or improve their running!

Stride & Strength Coaching has helped me set 5k and 10k PBs, and generally improve my endurance. Marcus’ positive attitude and reassurance has played a huge part in me feeling ready to attempt my first ever marathon. He’s an amazing coach and I couldn’t recommend his services more!

Marcus is an outstanding coach, and his training plans have significantly improved my endurance and speed. Marcus is motivating, attentive to detail, and always fosters an encouraging environment to keep you coming back. If you're looking to elevate your performance, I highly recommend.

Marcus is not only a fantastic coach but also a genuinely top guy so is always a pleasure to be coached by! I’ve been training with Marcus for several months now and the progress I’ve made has exceeded all expectations. Thanks to the structured drills and tailored sessions we’ve worked on together, I’m running intervals faster and sustaining longer distances than I ever thought possible. Marcus puts careful thought into every session, explaining everything clearly and making it enjoyable with his infectious enthusiasm for running and coaching. His passion and knowledge make each session something to look forward to.

Great coach and a great guy! Very friendly and knowledgeable, able to set sessions for all abilities and adapt his coaching style. He has made running much more enjoyable for me which has helped cut my times.

I trained with Marcus for a number of years, which included 9 marathons. I was living overseas at the time which didn’t cause any issues as we communicated virtually. If you are looking for a trainer who will adapt your training to fit into your lifestyle then he is your man. He is knowledgeable, approachable and makes you feel like an athlete (even if you are like me and nowhere near his gazelle like pace 😂)!

Passionate about the work he does! Marcus brings the positivity, good vibes and always pushes me to be better. I have shaved off almost 4 minutes from my 5K in the last 3 months and feel that I understand how my body adapts to each run whether that’s interval training or easy runs. Marcus explains every session as well as how it will benefit an overall programme! Get in touch with him if you want to improve your running technique, need someone to hold you accountable or have a new goal in mind, you won’t be disappointed.

Marcus is a great guy with loads of experience and expertise, my 5k times keep getting and better and better thanks to weekly intervals sessions and he's always there for advice on all things running! Would highly recommend :)

Marcus is an absolute legend, he coached me through interval based sessions into achieving a sub hour 10k! He’s also just a really nice dude which made our sessions fun and made me excited to run!
