Run Coach Angela Reviews 

Angela is an absolutely amazing run coach. I contacted Angela when I signed up for a 10k with absolutely no running experience. I was sceptical that I’d actually be race ready given that I had only a few weeks to train, but with Angela’s help and guidance not only was I able to run the race, but I also did it in pretty good time. I wouldn’t hesitate to to recommend her to anyone looking to improve their running time and/or technique, training for a big race or setting out on their running journey for the first time.

Angela was a fantastic help for my daughter who takes her running very seriously. They worked together twice a week, come rain or shine and my daughter always looked forward to the sessions and made great progress.

I started training with Angela back in February . Angela’s approach is far more individual than a couch to 5k and she gives me lots of tips on technique and breathing as well as seeing some beautiful parts of Bath i hadn’t seen before . I can honestly say that i enjoy running now , I will never be fast but i am just happy to be out and doing it and Angela is so encouraging .

I signed up for coaching with Angela at the beginning of the year having never run more than a 5k, with a goal to run a half marathon in October.
I couldn’t have asked for a better coach. Angela was encouraging and supportive whilst also ensuring I remained accountable and stuck to my training as much as I could. I finished my half marathon and can 100% day I wouldn’t have been able to do it without Angela’s support. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a coach who will help you reach your goals!

Angela is a wealth of knowledge and talent. Her sessions are highly structured with clear intended outcomes that inform and enrich your learning. She also cares about coaching as it’s more than a job to her because she believes in not just running but running with efficiency and effectiveness so that you can really enjoy it! She is so easy to relate to as well and has empathy for an individual’s coaching needs. I’m sure her sessions made the difference to my Bath Half performance which exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended!

A really great beginners course and a welcoming running club.
Angela really help me get back into running again and all the little modification in running form really helped my running ability. I really liked the beginners running course as well as the running club which was welcoming and friendly. I would recommend to anyone that wants to get into running, back into running or an experienced runner.

Fabulous course. Was way out of my comfort zone but Angela is knowledgable, enthusiastic and made me feel really welcome.

Angela is a brilliant coach who taught me so much about how to run better. I didn’t realise how much I wasn’t doing optimally until I started working with her. As a lapsed runner I needed to go back to the beginning and Angela has given me the knowledge and confidence to train towards the Bath half marathon. I would highly recommend Angela whether you are a beginner or seasoned runner, she makes the whole experience thoroughly enjoyable!

Angela has (separately) coached both me and my 15-year old daughter to get us up and running. She was fantastic and it has been transformational for both of us.
Neither of us was very confident to begin with but Angela broke running down into small, technical chunks, which felt manageable, and enabled us to look at what we were doing dispassionately. As we practised between sessions, we found that we were steadily running more efficiently and easily and, before we knew it, we were off.
I am now training for a half marathon, and every time it gets tough I go back to the basic techniques Angela gave me, which help me get past whatever obstacle I’m facing.
My daughter has started to go out once a twice a week by herself, and says she is feeling more confident in her movement. She is even contemplating a race in the autumn. Coaching an introverted teenager is no mean feat, but Angela’s approach worked really well.
I cannot recommend Angela as a coach highly enough. Once you’re running, her running club is also great: it’s friendly and she’s full of tips and techniques.

I contacted Angela after experiencing muscle pain while trying to get back into a running routine after a period of inactivity. Angela tailored a series of ‘Get Going’ sessions for me in which she introduced key aspects of running technique - e.g., posture, breathing, running uphill. Having finished the sessions, I would highly recommend Angela. She is an excellent teacher - kind, positive & motivating and the feedback she gives is always constructive and encouraging. Every session was followed up by detailed notes and accompanying videos/diagrams. Sadly I am moving away from the area otherwise I would have been very keen to continue running with Angela!

Running with Angela and training through the Covid period was a great experience. Angela is professional and patient and a great person to run with. She really 'knows her stuff' and makes you feel capable of achieving anything - she got me through my first half marathon. Either on a 121 coaching basis or as part of her running groups, you feel included and you will certainly have fun. Highly recommend no matter what level you are.

I got back into running thanks to having Angela coach me and joining the run club. She is really supportive and tailors the sessions to your needs and goals. The sessions helped motivate me and she gave me great tips to improve my running form and build my stamina. The running club is fantastic and is for all abilities, a really fun and sociable way to run. Highly recommend!

After a longish period with niggly injuries and then starting a new job (big change in routine) I'd lost a fair bit of fitness and my running mojo with it. I booked a series of weekly 121 coaching sessions with Angela over the summer and they were brilliant. Each session was carefully focussed so nothing was overwhelming, and Angela gave detailed written feedback, with accompanying videos, each week. My whole way of thinking about running changed and I felt really motivated to run again. Now I feel confident in my technique and I've not aggravated any of my old injuries. I'm back to running the same distances I was 2 years ago, which is great, and I feel ready to take on new challenges.

Very competent running coach. I've been working with Angela for about six weeks now and my running performance has improved considerably. We've looked at improving my technique, running specific strength training, and developing a workable yet progressive running plan. Very happy with the progress I've made so far. Would highly recommend.
