Gold Coast Run Coaching
From a run coaching point of view, Gold Coast Run Co offers the following Squads and other services:
The Whippets
For the youngsters (6 – 12 years)! This is about fun through physical activity and skills developed include running technique, coordination, general strength and endurance. A key focus of our coaching of younger athletes is creating people who are keen to be fit and active throughout their life. Their journey begins here.
Junior Squad
This is a fantastic squad of Secondary School aged runners with abilities that vary from District/Regional level to National Level (ages 12-18 Years). Medals at the State/National Athletics/Cross Country/Triathlon Championships is common for runners here! Runners in this group perform well because they are in an environment where all runners are aiming high and this supportive environment ensures each runner is working towards their potential.
High Performance Squad
This group is made up of young runners with serious aspirations of running competitively at a National and International level in Cross Country, Athletics or Triathlon, with a number of these runners with experience at running at major international competitions already.
Run Club
This group consists of runners of any age and any ability who run recreationally. We have beginner 5km Parkrunners through to the occasional 100km Ultramarathoners with all distances and speeds in between. The best thing about this group is the camaraderie; great people who enjoy pushing themselves and supporting each other. Regardless of your ability you will be challenged by this crew!
Online programs
We also provide online running programs for runners of all abilities particularly those who are targeting specific events (eg Gold Coast half marathon, City to Surf etc). We provide motivation and support for runners of all levels from afar!
Camps/Clinics/Tours
At various times we will offer these to members of the Gold Coast Run Co community. These immersion programs can help lift your running to a new level with specialised training and information sessions all in a superb training environment.
Proposed tours in the future include Summer training in Victorian snowy mountains, weekend training camps in the Gold Coast Hinterland as well as travel to home of the best distance runners in the world, Iten, Kenya.
