Sport science for every runner

Sport science, in every run you take.

We make sport science simple to understand and easy to use - so every runner, whatever your level, can train with the research instead of guesswork.

Our mission

Sport science shouldn't be locked away in journals and elite labs. We're here to make it accessible to everyone - and part of how you train, every single week.

Meet the coaches

Two sport scientists. A decade of running.

Ben and Tom Blamey have spent over ten years training, racing and studying what makes runners faster. We started Parallel Performance to close the gap we kept seeing - brilliant research that never reaches the everyday runner in a form they can actually use.
