Run Your Personal Best Bewertungen 43

I have worked with Brandon for several years (starting in my late 30s), having never had a running coach previously. It has been incredibly mentally refreshing to work with a coach, particularly one as good as Brandon. He has helped me transition from marathons to ultras and given me the confidence that I am doing the right training and preparation for a new and very different type of running. Brandon’s pre-race motivational messages are a particular highlight!

Working with Brandon has been great! I have lowered my marathon PR 8 minutes and also pr'd in the mile, 5k, and half marathon.

Best decision ever made. Totally changed my running experience. Training with Brandon and runyourpersonalbest.com is absolutely necessary if you have goals - get a coach.

Cory is a great coach! He knows how to create a running plan that fits both your lifestyle and running goals. He is very responsive and will adjust workouts whenever the need arises. I love having a schedule I can count on that helps me achieve my running goals, even during a very busy time in my life! Best of all, since using him as a coach, I have not been injured and I attribute this to following his plan and advice.

I honestly have only high praises for Cory and his work. Very individualized training programs that cater and support your running goals. Coming from a physical therapy background, I highly recommend working with Cory when it comes to safe progressions and supportive strength/core on off-days. His training programs reflect his extensive knowledge for running goals. They offer a spectrum of the level of support you need that you can choose from that is just crazy affordable. I became burnt out from running competitively and rekindled my joy for running with Cory's training. I will be coming back for all running goals and recommend him to my friends and colleagues.
I have so much gratitude for Cory!

Brandon Birdsong has been my coach for about 2.5 years now and I can’t recommend him enough. I have to say one of the things that I really love is the fact that he takes every single athlete’s goals seriously. I’m not elite or even in the competitive arena but he has always pushed me just the same and cheered me on as if I were about to make the Olympic team. He is always approachable, so incredibly down to earth and one of the most genuinely kind human beings I’ve ever met. Don’t let that fool you though, he’ll still kick your butt and whip you into shape. I can’t even describe all of the ways I’ve improved as a runner and all around athlete since we started working together. He knows his stuff and has a unique ability to tailor training to each individual client and meet you where you are as an athlete whether you’re just beginning or ready to win.

I’ve been an endurance athlete for 6 years now, competing in multiple Marathons and Full Ironman events, and am currently training for an Ultra Marathon- but despite this I’ve always been a slow runner. My entire running career, even while working with other coaches I would consistently run a 12-14 min/mi pace and just accepted this pace and blamed it on the fact I was just slow and always would be. In 6 years I saw virtually no improvement in my run pace while working on my own and with other coaches. That was until Run Your Personal Best!

I’ve been working with Cory and Run Your Personal Best for about 6 months now and the improvement has been incredible! I am running longer and faster than ever before, and my long runs have improved by nearly 2-3 minutes per mile in just 6 months. Not only that but I feel like for the first time I actually enjoy running and look forward to my run workouts.

I am so happy with my experience with Cory and Run Your Personal best!

Cory is a fantastic coach! He plans challenging and fun workouts. The daily communication and feedback on runs is so motivating. Under his coaching I was able to PR in the half marathon. If you are looking for a coach to take your running to the next level Cory is your guy!

Cory is a no non-sense coach. He gives structured workouts detailed to the athlete's goals. He gave workout plans to both me and my partner tailored to our specific running styles. He has a keen sense of how to coach the individual, rather than applying the same regimen for every runner. This makes him a good choice for all levels, from beginner to elite. And to boot, he is really genuine person -- always patient and willing to answer questions!

I met Brandon when I was in the dark hole of injury. He is THE reason I was able to come back as quickly as I did. Today, he is constantly pushing me to be my best. Even on my hardest training days, Brandon is encouraging. He consistently sets my plans that prove I'm capable of so much more than I believe myself to be. I couldn't ask for a more involved and POSITIVE coach! I was blessed to find him!

Mr. Birdsong is THE definition of a coach—more so, the ultimate motivator and a distant support system who holds you accountable towards chasing your “personal best”. It’s simple— all you have to do is communicate YOUR goal and through his experience and creativity, he’ll help guide you with a very detailed and personal running training regiment. Take it from me, a guy who never really was a distant runner— put my mind to it and got results! Through Brandon and his expertise, I was able to gain the endurance to accomplish Ranger School— but I wasn’t satisfied with just that! I came back pretty beat up from training and jumped right back into another training regiment with Brandon. I’m very thankful to have someone who holds me accountable. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a change in life for their fitness! Keep up the great work running surge team!

Cory is an exceptional coach! His communication and scheduling of workouts have been on point. He provides motivational comments and helpful input after each workout. I sincerely feel that Cory’s coaching method has helped me feel accountable for my workouts. (I wake up each day, excited to work out)! After four months of working with Cory, I’ve seen unimaginable results which include my fastest mile, 5k and 10k. I look forward to working with Cory for the foreseeable future.

Brandon is AMAZING!
I would have never continued running after trying for 5 months and not making much progress. He is so supportive and adapts your schedule to fit you and your life!

My coach, Brandon, is The Best. He takes the time to stay in tune with my exercise needs, is always extremely motivating, positive and fun. Brandon is careful not to overdo things while making sure that I work hard and push myself to become my best. I would recommend Brandon to anyone seeking a coach who cares and who has the knowledge of how to best coach a person to meet their goals, no matter the scale. I am currently training for a 100 miler and have 110% confidence that Brandon's coaching will allow me to finish those miles with a smile on my face!

Brandon is an amazing trainer!! I have made vast improvements in my running career (doing less work than before) due to his training. I have gone from thinking I was going to die during an ultra race to finishing strong!! I'm 64...so that's a huge deal for me!! Amazing trainer and person!!

Coach Brandon has been tremendous and I have been really excited to work with him over the last 6 months. Having a sounding board for my workouts and help through some injuries has been pivotal. I'm not one of top elite runners he coaches but I feel like I've been treated like one. Highly recommend!

I've worked with Brandon for the last year. As a 50+ yr old runner, I felt I needed some guidance and motivation to keep progressing with my running. I'm not crushing my PRs from 30 years ago, but I am stronger, more consistent, and have many new tools to help me enjoy my running and be more competitive in these "upper age groups". And I have actually snagged some podium time this past year.

Brandon is an amazing coach. I've been working with him for almost 3 years and have improved my running more than I could ever imagine. He is super attentive and really takes his coaching to a personal level. He knows when to push me and when I should back off to avoid injury. I highly recommend Brandon and Run Your Personal Best. If you are looking for a coach look no further. You will not be disappointed!

Brandon is amazing. I have cut my times by well over a minute per mile. I have ran a PB in every race I have run since working with him. He goes over and above to set a plan specifically for me. He listens to my every need and concern. He is super accessible and always responds quickly every time I contact him with a question. Anyone would be lucky to have him as a coach.

I love these guys and the user friendly platform. They’re dedicated and care about who you are as an athlete. Thank you so much for everything and for being so reliable!
