So he charges how much per month for coaching, yet he doesn't know if he should enter a race or not and wants his following to decide? I wonder if this is how he makes up all his coaching plans?

Disclaimer: I am not a super fast runner and my training plans are more training “guidelines” (in that I don’t think I’ve ever stuck to one completely - 65% maybe!). I still get GFA and BQ though.

If marathon training only starts on Monday, why on earth can’t he do a 5k race at the weekend? Either move stuff around or acknowledge that one deviation from the plan is not going to make any difference to Berlin. For context, I’m at the end of week 3 for a different marathon and have been pretty ill so mostly only time on feet and I bailed after 10miles this morning when the pavement started moving 🤦‍♀️

Someone needs to tell these coaches that it’s ok to be flexible, to allow for illness and a 5k race in week 1 will make sweet fa difference. Ffs.

He's just posting for engagement, I rarely see his posts or stories when I am on Insta so he has to try and get people to engage with his posts/stories to keep him visible. Who cares if he races or not 🤷‍♀️ I'm happy not seeing his posts.

He has a spreadsheet comparing his training against other insta runners and an Olympian???? Some people have time in their lives….

He did do the big half and it looks like him… the big baby had a moan into the camera afterwards again….

I was in London last week and at the finish line for this as my husband was running, saw them finish and Bester was lingering around for ages to get on the cameras and hassle the elite women finishers who clearly didn't want to know
