Curious what structured coaching actually looks like? This free 4 week training plan is designed to give you a genuine insight into the approach we use across our coaching and training plans at Beyond Ultra.
Whether you are training for your first trail race, building consistency, or looking to progress towards longer distances, this plan introduces the key principles that underpin effective endurance training without overcomplicating the process.
Inside the plan you’ll find:
-Structured weekly training with clear guidance
-Sessions built around RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) rather than strict pace targets
-A balance of endurance, recovery, and efficiency work
-Guidance notes explaining the purpose behind sessions
-Planned recovery week to help absorb training and reduce fatigue
-A realistic and sustainable approach designed for real life, not perfect conditions
Rather than simply adding more miles each week, the programme focuses on building fitness progressively while managing fatigue. You’ll get an insight into how training blocks are structured, why recovery matters, and how consistent, manageable training often produces the best long-term results.
This is not just a generic download pulled from a spreadsheet. It reflects the same coaching philosophy we use to support runners preparing for everything from shorter trail races through to ultras and multi-day challenges.
If you’ve ever wondered whether structured coaching could help your running, this is the perfect place to start.
