Everything needed to turn a goal into training.

The tools work together. Your plan gives the structure, the session library gives you context and options, and the calculators help you execute at the right intensity.

Performance tools

Calculate race pace, training zones and predicted times without switching between websites.

Ongoing support

Community Q&As, member discounts and every new plan or feature included automatically.

50 Key Sessions library

Understand the session before you start it.

The paid library turns the full session bank into a practical coaching tool rather than a static guide.

  • Personal pace labels shown directly on the session shape.
  • Clear recovery guidance, including active jogs, floats and set breaks.
  • Save sessions, record ratings and notes, and revisit your history.
  • Build a six-session, three-week rotation with load-placement guidance.

Evidence-led, without pretending one model fits everyone

The plans use a high proportion of genuinely easy running alongside targeted threshold, VO₂max and race-specific work. The structure is informed by endurance-training research and translated into practical sessions runners can execute.

Before you join

Common questions.

What is included today?
The Sub-25, Sub-20 and Sub-18 5K plans, the complete 50 Key Sessions member library, performance tools, member Q&As, partner discounts and the member coaching rate. New member plans and features are added to the same dashboard as they launch.
Is this personalised coaching?
No. Membership is designed for runners who want strong structure and tools but are comfortable training independently. For a plan written and adapted around your schedule, history and data, choose 1:1 coaching.
What if I do not know my training paces?
Use a recent race result or target time in the member tools. The training plans and session library then give you clear pace and effort references. You can update your pace profile whenever your fitness changes.
Can I use everything on my phone?
Yes. The dashboard, plans, session library, logs, rotations and calculators are designed to work on mobile as well as desktop.
How does billing work?
Choose £12 monthly or £120 yearly. The yearly option is equivalent to £10 per month and saves £24 across the year. Billing renews automatically until cancelled.
Can I cancel at any time?
Yes. There is no long-term lock-in. Your access continues until the end of the period already paid for.
Is there still a free option?
Yes. Free plans, guides and weekly applied sport-science content remain available through the Sport Science Simplified newsletter.
