Meet Your Coach

Hi, I'm Sam

I'm a UESCA qualified running coach with an MSc in Public Health, a registered nurse by background, and a dad of three. I understand what it means to train with a full life - early mornings, long days, tired legs, and still finding a way to move forward.

I've stood on podiums, won ultras and pushed myself deep into endurance challenges. But I've also been forced to start again - after a knee surgery that didn't go to plan, I had to rebuild slowly and patiently. That experience changed everything.

I started Go Beyond Endurance because I believe people deserve more than just a training plan. They deserve a coach who cares.

Why Go Beyond

Coaching built on trust, clear communication and a genuine commitment to progress.

Health-first training

With a nursing and public health background, long-term health always comes before short-term numbers.

Training that fits real life

Your plan works around work, family, fatigue and reality - not against it.

Evidence-based structure

Smart endurance principles. No random sessions. No nonsense.

Straightforward communication

No confusing coaching jargon. You'll always know what you're doing and why.

Quality over volume

I work with a limited number of athletes so coaching stays personal and focused.

Support from beginner to elite

I coach all levels, but I only work with people who care about improving.

What runners say

Real feedback from athletes I've worked with.

"Sam's coaching changed everything for me. Training finally fits around my life instead of the other way around. After years of inconsistent running, I've now completed my first ultra."
