What Athletes Are Saying

Sandro’s expertise and attention to detail has helped me improve more than I had thought possible. Through his online coaching, I was able to break my 20 year 5K PR by 21 sec to 15:48. And with his training plan, I was able to break my HM PR by almost 4 min to 1:14:29.

Shai Birmaher

United States

After I started to follow Sandro’s training plan my running improved more in 8 weeks than it did in the last 2 years when I wasn’t getting any guidance. Instead of doing the same distances and lots of mileage, my training has finally become fun again.

Carina Leps

Estonia

Following the competitive marathon plan helped me reach a new PR with a first place overall finish in 2:39:37 on a hilly course. Sandro’s scientific approach ensures that every run and workout has a purpose, arriving at the starting line fit, healthy, and fresh.
