Application

Apply to Become a Plan Creator

You do not need to be a professional coach

This form is for normal race finishers with useful lived experience. We want to understand what race you completed, what life looked like while you trained, and who you could help.

This application is straightforward. We want to understand three things:

→
Your Race Experience: Which race(s) have you completed? When? What was it like?
→
Your Real-Life Constraints: What were you balancing while training? Work, family, travel, limited terrain, limited time, or something else?
→
Who You Can Help: Which athletes are most like you were, and what would you help them avoid?

You do not need coaching qualifications or previous plan-writing experience. Thoughtful, specific answers about your own race preparation are more useful than a professional coaching CV.
