An Olympian who trained
without perfect conditions.
Mohammad Jafar Moradi was the first Iranian marathoner to qualify for the Olympics. At Rio 2016 he fell near the finish, got up and finished. Nine years after his first national record, he broke it again in Berlin: 2:17:14.
For years he trained without sponsors or a specialist coach while working to pay for it. He knows how to build a plan around a real life.

Questions before you apply
Do you coach beginners?
This page is for runners training for a half or full marathon. If you are just starting, apply anyway and we will tell you honestly whether it is the right fit.
How does coaching work across time zones?
Plans and feedback are asynchronous, based on the training data you upload, so your time zone is not a problem. Calls are arranged when they are needed.
What does it cost?
Pricing is shared after the assessment, once the length and type of the coaching block are clear.
