Marathon Coaching

Train with purpose.
Race with confidence.

Don't do it alone. Train smarter and race faster with Ndur Coaching.

Philosophy

Built around the athlete, not the algorithm.

Our technology-driven solution removes the guesswork from coaching, while continuing to maintain a 1:1 connection between coach and athlete. Our platform simplifies the work of a coach, but never replaces it.

01

Individualized training

At Ndur, we understand that life is busy and does not always revolve around fitness. We work with athletes to fit their personal goals, schedule, and fitness level.

02

Data-informed, not data-driven

Every plan is thoroughly reviewed and personalized to the athlete. Our software can outline a plan, but only a well-informed coach can perfect a robust schedule.

03

Recovery as training

Running is just one facet of a successful training block. Recovery, nutrition, and strength training are never neglected at Ndur.

04

Long-term athlete development

Whether you are training for your first race or targeting a big PR, we want to build a connection with you! Our program is designed to develop a community of athletes.

Why Ndur

How we compare.

Let's be honest. Almost everyone would love to have a 1:1 coach that is committed to helping them achieve their goals. Unfortunately, most coaching services are wildly expensive, limiting the number of athletes who can afford these services. As a result, many athletes rely on AI generated plans that lead to injuries. At Ndur, we've built the best of both worlds. Our coaching platform, built by Coach Nic, removes the guesswork and redundancy of coaching, allowing us to deliver 1:1 coaching at a much more affordable price.

Summit Training · Half marathon
Going into my second half marathon, my goal was to train with structure and follow a plan that would build the endurance I needed to run the full distance. Nic went above and beyond to help me do just that, encouraging me along the way while holding me accountable to my plan. Through his coaching, I learned how to structure my runs, stay consistent, and build mental strength and endurance from a biblical standpoint. I went into race day feeling prepared, confident, and mentally strong. I couldn’t recommend him more to anyone looking for guidance, accountability, or a new challenge!
