Vert.run is the best. Vert.run is one of the most affordable and straight forward ways to get great coaching for your upcoming race. I signed up wanting to improve my Pike Peak performance. Coach Francesco set me on the perfect path. I ended up setting 3 PR's in less than 4 weeks. You can't go wrong with their flexible and affordable plans.

Best Program Out There I signed up to a training plan for the UTMB OCC in August 2023. It was for four months, I was unsure signing up but I knew I needed to be at my best to be able to run the OCC. It exceeded all of my expectations on all levels. The plan was put together by Ruth Croft and the coach I was assigned was Francesco Puppi - this was unbelievable that I was guided by Francesco on this journey. The plan was very different from what I had used in the past but it was also flexible. The strength / core workouts with the videos helped keep me injury free even though I was training 6 days a week (age 65). When I had questions Francesco always responded within 1 - 3 days and his encouragement and support was key. Logging the runs on the website was easy and the way Vert presented the dashboard and the focus on elevation really helped my prep. I caught up with the guys at the UTMB expo in Chamonix and it was clear to me they love what they do and they want others to be successful. My day on course was the best day I have had running - the plan worked a treat, my conditioning was ideal, I was fresh at the start and fine at the end. I cannot recommend this enough.

Mindful of injuries Currently finish up my second program with Vert.Run. They are super nice and helpful with my knee injury, and offer really helpful modifications without making me feel like I’ve missed anything!!

I started a 50K plan a couple of weeks… Initially, I had an issue setting up my account, needed to send an email but all good now. I'm now several weeks into my tailored training plan with personal coach and really seeing the benefits.

Ran my first ultra with Vert I followed the Hillary Allen 'Run your next 50k and finish strong plan' with Vert Run, and was able to run my first 50k and finish strong! The plan was good for providing accountability and motivation, as well as pushing me towards workouts I normally find excuses not to do like S&C and hill repeats. The flexibility and adjustments with the coach are great: I was able to change the plan a few times while in the middle of it. Overall I am very happy with Vert and will be using it for my next race
