Testimonials:

Working with Steve from Run My Way Australia was an amazing experience. He met me exactly where I was in my training and tailored the program to help me achieve my Sydney Marathon goal. Steve normally works with athletes over 13 weeks, but I was fortunate enough to have him coach me for 8 weeks. Every week, he provided a clear training plan, extra guidance when needed, and was always available to answer questions. We set a goal for Sydney and executed it perfectly. Steve's knowledge, support and personalised approach gave me the confidence to get the most out of myself on race day. I couldn't recommend Steve and Run My Way Australia highly enough.

— Kelly O. Marathoner.

Steve is everything you could hope for in a running coach. Not only does he keep you accountable, but he also brings incredible positivity and unwavering support, especially during the tough mental moments that come with marathon training. He adapts training plans around your schedule, making it possible to balance intense training with a busy life. With his experience and proven results, Steve’s guidance is both grounded and encouraging. He transformed my goal from simply finishing a marathon to crossing the finish line with a time I’m incredibly proud of—all while keeping me injury-free. I will be forever thankful for his support and motivation in helping me conquer this challenge, and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

— Corey G. First-time Marathoner.
