How Coaching Helps You Improve
Find what needs to improve
I review your training, race goal, and recent progress to identify what will make the biggest difference next.
Build training around you
I structure your training around your strengths, weaknesses, recovery, schedule, and race demands.
Adjust as you progress
I monitor your training analytics and update your plan based on your performance, recovery, and feedback.
Athlete Results
The structure and guidance helped me execute a new marathon 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.

Sandro’s very well thought out coaching has assisted my running greatly, being able to fit my runs around the changing hours I work with my job. I am certain I would not have managed a 2:58 marathon PB at 45 years old without Sandro’s coaching.
Richard Leary
New Zealand
Sandro’s expertise and attention to detail has helped me improve more than I had thought possible. Through his online coaching, I broke my 20 year 5K PR by 21 seconds to 15:48 and I was able to break my half marathon PR by almost 4 minutes to 1:14:29.

Direct coach support (24h response)
All coaching and communication is handled directly by me, Sandro Sket. I don’t outsource coaching or delegate athlete management to assistants. My approach is based on the belief that training decisions and performance oversight require direct involvement to maintain quality and consistency.
To ensure that level of attention, remote coaching is intentionally limited to a small number of athletes.
Most runners notice improvements in how training feels within the first few weeks as load, recovery, and execution become better aligned. Race performance typically improves over the following months as fitness compounds and preparation becomes more specific.
You’ll improve more than with a standard training plan because training is adjusted continuously to your strengths, limitations, and response to load.
But the real advantage of coaching is that performance improvements go beyond your next A-race, because decisions are made to achieve your full potential over the long term.
Start by signing up to online coaching.
Then I’ll send you an email to ask about your training background, race goal, and current challenges. I’ll review your information and then we will start training toward your goal with individualized coaching.
If you have any questions before you commit to coaching you can write me an email to: sandro@runningfront.com
