For those of you with a sharp eye and who eagerly follow the ITU World Championship Series, you may have noticed the Coached logo on the front of kiwi pro, Tony Dodds race gear.

I only started running in my mid-30’s, and it’s been a fun and enriching 10-year journey so far! I ran to improve my fitness so that I wouldn’t get so out-of-breath while playing football… but then the football games gradually decreased and disappeared, and I started to enjoy running itself more and more, until it became my primary sport and passion!

Two weeks ago we announced our Coached advisory board, a group of specialists who have joined our team to help us provide more holistic training programmes and support to our athletes. Gino is the next of these advisors and he is on the team to help our athletes prevent and manage injuries.

Last week we announced that three leaders in the areas of nutrition, physiotherapy and mindfulness will be joining the Coached team to support our staff and our members.
