Coach Parry Avaliações 

9/3/2025Just beginning my training for State (VA) and National Senior Games The sport is the 5K Race. I’m 81 years old.
I competed last September and won my State 5K, and this past July I finished 4th in the National Senior Games. My best time was 26:54.
I really have had no running training, other than going out and running local holiday 5K races (July 4th, St Patrick’s Day, Memorial Day). In the past I have only run to stay in shape in order to climb mountains around the world, and here in Colorado with family and close friends.
I no longer do the mountains so last year started more 5Ks to keep me busy.
I found I was not improving my speed and wind (endurance), so I looked at your site for some guidance.
I am scheduled to run a Northern Virginia Senior Olympics 5K on 21 September, however eight of those days will be on the road traveling with family, so I won’t see much training for that race.

I'm two weeks into my 1/2 marathon training plan with Coach Parry and it has been great. In the past I knew I should be incorporating strength training into what I do but didn't really know where to begin. Now I have it all laid out for me and can do it all at home. Having everything on a schedule that I can easily modify to suite my needs is really helping me train much more consistently which is key to running success. Can't wait to do my 5k time trial in a couple of weeks and see where I'm at!

It is set out nicely and the videos are a great addition. I would like a bit more details about warm ups and cool downs before and after the run.

I have enjoyed the workout plans, including the strength workouts. I loved that I was able to get on my computer and shift workouts (I have run my long runs on Saturdays for yrs and Sundays were rest days). Thanks for a fantastic, user-friendly app and website!

“I absolutely love this 12-week marathon training plan! I’m in week 4 know and loves every training session so far! The structure is clear and easy to follow, even on a busy day. The workouts are well-balanced between long runs, speed sessions, hill sessions and recovery, which really help me build endurance without feeling burned out. I’m excited for race day and I believe I will be feeling strong and confident! I highly recommend this plan to anyone training for their marathon—whether it’s your first or you’re chasing a new PB!”

Love the app, love the structured training programs.. Lets see if I can run a marathon!

Excellent training!
Videos and training plan are a perfect combo to help me achieve my running goals. It is very logical, practical, and full of golden nuggets.

Structured and easy to follow - good interface

Solid training plan that is easy to follow. My vo2 max is already improving.

An easy to follow plan, I love that it is time-based and that it includes strength training as well. The videos are great to ensure proper form.

Good efficiency

Two weeks in and the strength and stability workouts are varied and effective. I'm recovering from a meniscus tear and have been very limited in how hard I can run without pain and soreness. All of my runs have been easy pace so far and none over 50 minutes but I am seeing incremental improvement after only 2 weeks

Joining the Faster Beyond Fifty club was an easy decision after attending the masterclass. Onboarding was smooth and the coaches are very responsive. Looking forward to seeing improvements in my running performance.

I love the training programme, it keeps me feeling strong and i always finish my marathon! The videos you post are so efficient and adds so much value. The only thing is i don't really ask questions, well, most off the questions you answer in your videos and podcasts. So well done!!!

Basically it is giving me a guideline and motivation to get back into running injury free. I need structure to motivate me otherwise it is always "I'll get out tomorrow and do something" but there is never any time. This makes me do what is on the menu so to speak. I am still getting to understand how to record the workouts ie like intensity. I have no idea how to record that or what to put there. Also on saving the strength workouts I assume it is only the time that is spent.

Enjoying the videos & the training guides, thank you. It sure makes training easier.

The constant reassurance, guidance and expert interaction is fantastic. Every day has something new in store for us to take up or complete. It is all available and up to us to make use of it. I appreciate the programme, the schedule and the knowledge sharing. I love the live sessions and one-on-one live chats. I excel in this type of set up

The Coach Parry program has demonstrated excellent communication and even in my brief tenure this has been fantastic, helping me get set up and started.

The coaches have been very thorough, approachable, and proactive. The plan is well thought out, and the coaches are always available in the forum to answer any questions. Highly recommend.

Really informative content and great guidance from the experts at Coach Parry!
