WHAT IS GROUP COACHING
Group Coaching is for runners who want more than an off-the-shelf plan, but don’t need the full ongoing support of bespoke 1:1 coaching.
Each month, you’ll receive a personalised training plan delivered through TrainingPeaks, built around your goal race, experience, availability and current training needs.
Alongside your plan, you’ll be supported through our group coaching environment, giving you access to coaching guidance, education and accountability to help you train with more purpose and confidence.
This is a practical, affordable way to bring more structure to your training while still feeling supported by the Embrace Ultra coaching community.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Everything you need to train with more structure, clarity and support each month.
INCLUSIONS
✓ Personalised monthly training plan
✓ Delivered through TrainingPeaks basic account
✓ Embrace Trail Run Club Membership (worth £10 per month)
✓ Monthly coaching Q&A / education
✓ Group coaching support
✓ Guidance around pacing, effort, fuelling and recovery
✓ Support with training consistency and race preparation
DELIVERED THROUGH TRAININGPEAKS
Your monthly plan will be delivered through TrainingPeaks, giving you a clear place to view your training, record completed sessions and stay organised.
You’ll be able to see what’s coming up, follow your sessions and keep your training structure in one place.
Below is an example weekly plan
HOW MONTHLY PLANNING WORKS
At the start of each month, you’ll complete a short training update so your plan can be shaped around your current situation.
This helps us understand what you’re training for, how your previous month has gone, what time you have available and what needs to be considered in your next training block.
YOUR
UPCOMING GOAL
Tell us what race, challenge or distance you’re building towards. This could be 8 weeks or 24 weeks. We build a plan to match.
YOUR AVAILABILITY
Share your available training days, long run windows and key commitments, using the availability tool in TrainingPeaks
YOUR CURRENT TRAINING
Let us know how training has been going, including consistency, fatigue or any concerns. This is done via TrainingPeaks comments
YOUR MONTHLY PLAN
Your plan is then built & delivered through TrainingPeaks, giving you clear structure for the month ahead.
TRAIL RUN CLUB MEMBERSHIP INCLUDED
Group Coaching also includes Embrace Trail Run Club Trail Membership at no extra cost, giving you access to the wider club community alongside your monthly training plan. RRP £10 per month
Ultra Membership Includes
✓ Access to weekly club runs
✓ Monthly coaching webinar / Q&A

IS GROUP COACHING RIGHT FOR YOU?
Group Coaching is ideal for runners who want structure, support and accountability without the full commitment of 1:1 coaching.
✓ You’re training for a trail, ultra or long-distance goal
✓ You want a personalised plan but not full 1:1 coaching
✓ You struggle to know what to do each week
✓ You want guidance around pacing, fuelling & race preparation
✓ You need accountability to stay consistent
✓ You like the idea of being supported in a group coaching environment
✓ You want the added value of Trail Run Club Ultra Membership included
✓ You want a more affordable way to access a run coach.
You don’t need to be experienced or fast. You just need a goal, a willingness to train consistently and the right support around you.
WHAT GROUP COACHING IS NOT
Group Coaching gives you structure, guidance and accountability, but it is not the same as full bespoke 1:1 coaching.
It does not include unlimited private coach contact, weekly bespoke plan programming / changes or detailed individual analysis of every session.
If you need closer support, regular adjustments & direct coach feedback, Bespoke 1:1 Coaching will be the better option.
WHAT'S NOT INCLUDED
× Weekly bespoke plan creation and/or changes
× Unlimited private coach messaging
× Monthly 1:1 video calls
× Detailed individual session analysis
× Fully personalised race strategy documents
× Daily feedback on every training session
