A running coach and training plan that adapts when life happens. Marathon, half marathon, 10k, 5k, or just getting fitter. Not a static PDF you print and abandon. Your plan reshapes around your real life. Hey, I'm Steev. Tell me about your next race and I'll build you a plan that actually makes sense — then keep reshaping it as real life gets in the way. Skipped a run this week? Legs still trashed from Sunday? Work ate your week? We adjust. No guilt, no judgment, no starting over. Most plans are frozen the day you download them. Miss a run, wake up sore, or have a week blow up at work, and you're stuck staring at a schedule that no longer fits. That's not coaching. That's a document. The plan should bend so you don't have to break it. Here's what we'll do together: - Chat one-on-one, any time. Ask me anything about your training and I answer in real time, grounded in YOUR actual runs — not some generic FAQ. - I hand you workouts as clear cards: type, distance, target pace, target effort or heart rate, plus the warmup, main set, and cooldown. And the WHY behind each one, so you can push back on it. It's your training — you should understand it, not just follow it. - Set a goal — a race with a date, distance, and target time, or just general fitness — and I'll build toward it. We start easy, add real work, sharpen you up, then back off so you show up fresh on the day. - Your journey is a timeline you can see and tap into. Tap any day to open its full detail. - Log a run yourself — date, type, distance, time, effort, plus heart rate, cadence, or elevation if you have them — and I'll react and reshape what comes next. - Connect Apple Health and I'll pull your runs in automatically — distance, heart rate, calories, elevation — so your plan stays in sync. Read-only. I never write anything back. - Keep a profile with your stats, personal bests, and private notes, just for you. No judgment, ever. Bad week? We adjust. Great week? We build on it. Comeback after months off? I meet you where you are. I'm the running buddy who actually remembers what you did last month and why it matters now. Free to start — no credit card needed. Upgrade any time right inside the app for more coaching. So tell me where you're headed. Let's build something that actually fits your real life. No trackers, no ads.
