Having trained very hard in the past, I constantly felt fatigued and was often injured. Morph Performance taught me to train with purpose and it felt amazing to finally be injury free. Despite being over-qualified, their dedication to working with newbie runners such as myself, made me feel special. From struggling to finish my first marathon, I managed to PB my next marathon in 4:27:20.

A few short years ago, I decided to take on the challenge of running my first marathon and was looking to apply some science and method to my training. Morph Performance offered just that with their scientific testing in the lab. Combined with some practical advice on nutrition and a detailed training plan, I had some clear guidance on how to train, and eat, smarter. A year later I ran a Boston Qualifying time.

When my running performance plateaued for quite some time, I turned to Morph Performance for help to work out what was going wrong. After putting together my season plan, I raced less, ran longer but slower and spent more time recovering. This strategy helped improve my quality of training and I achieved a breakthrough result of 12hrs 35mins for the 100km ultramarathon.

After suffering from a fractured foot, I decided to adopt a more scientific approach to training and was determined to achieve my Boston Qualifier goal this time. Morph Performance eased me back into training and despite being based in the United States, the online structure and support helped me make it to the start line at Boston. The race was tough, but I was especially pleased to finish the marathon in 3hrs 37mins and qualify for next year’s race.
