Coaching

Coaching plays a major role in Scottish. In general, members of all ages and abilities have a desire to complete a race as quickly as possible, or achieve a personal victory over fellow members.

Scottish recognises that people usually join the club to move their running or walking performance up to another level. To assist members meet their goals, Scottish offers a range of coaching services. These are delivered by our more experienced members to other members at no cost. If you wish, a training programme can be tailored by a club coach to suit your ability and goals. Or the advice provided can be more informal.

Scottish has a coaching coordinator whose aim is to service the coaching needs of club members. Most importantly, the coordinator is there to ensure that coaching advice is available to all members. The club runs several coaching seminars during the season. Look out for news of these on the website or in the weekly club emails.

Scottish has a growing library of coaching books. Increasingly, the Internet provides a wealth of running information. Both these sources provide an excellent starting point for members wanting to understand more about running, walking and training.
