BIG NEWS 🔥
Sam Coxon is officially joining MARA Coaching
We are merging Sam’s Run Coaching Company and MARA Coaching, bringing our athletes together to give you the very best of both of us to help you run further, run faster, and most importantly run FREE
As many of you will know, Sam and I have known each other for years - since day one of MARA! Sam has been involved since the beginning, supporting coached sessions and more and was my first ever coach! He’s helped me run further + faster than I ever believed possible and over the years he’s helped 100s of athletes do exactly the same.
Sam is a phenomenal coach, an unbelievable athlete — running marathons and ultra-marathons to rowing the Atlantic and more - and above anything else he’s a brilliant human being.
We’ve both had children in the last 18 months which put a pause on us working together for a while, but over the last six months or so we’ve been working more closely together again collaborating on athletes and helping each other out.
We’ve spent time together in the studio, collaborating on athlete programming, designing sessions, reviewing data, talking training philosophy, working together to help our athletes go further
So it feels right to officially merge and come together.
What it means is that all MARA Coaching athletes now get access to me (@georgebettany) and Sam - you get the best of both of us :)
Sam is exceptional when it comes to detail, data, and designing progressive training programmes personalised to each athlete. He LOVES TrainingPeaks and building programmes that take you to the next level.
And I love the mindset side — helping you find consistency, enjoyment, fulfilment, and peace in those miles - it’s the foundation to everything! - no point in having an amazing training plan if you don’t enjoy it, feel nervous on the start line, dread your runs, can’t find consistency!
As you may have seen, we’ve already started sharing some of our athlete stories recently, and there are plenty more to come
We’re excited for what’s ahead.
Stay tuned for more and we’ll see you out there
Keep running 👊
George & Sam xx
