For years, I was the person who thought "I wish I could be the sort of person who runs."
I wasn't just "not sporty." I weighed nearly 150kg and was barely mobile. Running felt like something that happened to other people, people who were built differently than me. Then I stumbled across Couch to 5K and had a thought that genuinely changed my life: you can learn to run. Anyone can.
It took me two more years to work up the nerve to actually lace up. Immediately after finishing my first run, I collapsed into a sweaty heap on my bed wondering what I'd done to myself. There were no happy endorphins. It was just hard. I want to be honest with you about that - if you're starting from where I was, it's going to be hard before it gets good. Not because something is wrong with you. Because that's just how it works, and almost nobody tells you that.
But I also remember, ten years later, my first 20-minute run. My first mile. The moment that I did the thing that I spent my entire life believing that I could never do.
That moment is what I coach for.
I'm based in Norway and I work with runners at every level - people running their first kilometre and people lining up for their first hundred-miler. My Strava religiously tracks elevation, heart rate, and every cute animal that I spotted on my run. I think running should be taken seriously without being serious. I think your pace is nobody's business but yours. And I think the best run you'll ever do is the one that makes you want to go back out tomorrow.
If that sounds like your kind of running, hit me up.
