Coached by someone from your world — not a professional athlete who's never had to fit a marathon build around a trading floor, two young kids, or business travel. Built by living the same constraints you're bringing here, not around them — and still racing for real performance.
Most running coaches are former professionals — genuinely fast, but with no real reference for what your week looks like. No deck due Monday. No London day-trip. No 6pm client dinners. No partner with their own demanding obligations to work around.
I built my performances inside all of that, not on the side of it — full-time in a major Investment Bank, father of two young kids, still competitive enough to have earned the numbers below. That's the method: tested for years, on one athlete first — myself — before it was ever offered to anyone else.
Years spent on standardized online coaching, applied to myself, mostly produced fatigue and flat results — plans built for a generic week, indifferent to the one that had actually happened.
At the same time, the same questions kept coming — from family, from friends, from colleagues: what shoes, how to structure a block, how to pace a race. I started answering those, informally, long before Off Peak became anything a person could apply to.
The method itself was built the same way — on thousands of kilometers run, altitude camps in Kenya, dozens of books read, and conversations with coaches worth learning from. And, of course, learning from the many mistakes made along the way.
A colleague spent years running the same two hard 10Ks a week on the office treadmill — flat out, no easy days, no progression, no speed work — and signing up for races throughout the year without ever moving the needle. Same time, race after race.
I stepped in and coached him myself — real structure, a plan that actually progressed, mileage built up gradually instead of maxing out twice a week. It's the same approach that became Off Peak.
The market moves and you're stuck at your desk two hours longer than planned, a pitch gets pulled forward a day, your kid spikes a fever at pickup — the session moves, not the week. No conversation needed to make it happen.
Earnings, a deal closing, a board week — flagged in advance, the block gets lighter before it hits, not patched up in a panic afterward.
Kids, logistics, a partner with commitments of their own — training fits into what's actually left in the day, not what a generic plan assumes you have.
Built around your calendar, adjusted continuously as it changes.
Guidance fitted to a schedule that includes client dinners and long-haul flights, not a lab.
The days before, fueling plan, pacing — the details that decide the outcome as much as the training does.
Which races, in what order, and why — built around your year, not a generic season.
Progress in this sport takes time. The relationship is built for cycles, not a single block.
Shoes, watch, kit for travel and races — one of the questions people ask most, answered without the guesswork.
Every application is reviewed personally, followed by a phone conversation before anyone is accepted. The roster stays deliberately small — not as a marketing device, but because full reactivity is the whole point, and that only holds with a limited number of athletes.
What matters more than current level is commitment: a real goal, and the readiness to invest in it fully. Beginner or advanced, the level of attention is the same — this isn't about accumulating names, it's about a small number of people succeeding at something that matters to them.
Monthly coaching, direct access, adjusted continuously to your actual calendar — not a fixed plan you're expected to bend your week around. No hand-off, no walking away with a document — this is an ongoing relationship, built and rebuilt as your life moves.
A short conversation — your goal, your schedule, what's realistic. It's a two-way check, not an interview you can fail.
No lock-in. It's month to month — you stay because it's working, not because of a contract.
Yes. A message is enough. No forms, no retention calls.
That's exactly the case this was built for. If a week can move at the last minute, the plan is designed to move with it — that's the whole premise, not an edge case.
Both. What matters is commitment to a real goal, not your current level.
Fully remote. Location doesn't change how it works.
Yes. Nothing about your training, your goals, or your schedule is shared, and this isn't a platform where your activity is visible to anyone else.
