Stop cycling between injury and frustration. Develop the resilience to run consistently, recover faster, and hit your true potential.
THE STUCK RUNNER
Plateaued times despite consistent training and maximum effort.
THE INJURED RUNNER
Caught in an endless cycle of breakdown, rehab, and frustrating comebacks.

Coming back to the sport after time away, and wanting to do it right this time.
THE GOAL CHASER
Chasing a specific PB, marathon time, or new distance milestone.

WHO WE HELP
We work with runners who are serious about their progress but need structure, accountability, and a smarter approach to training.
No structured plan
Training without a clear system or progression.
Too much conflicting advice
Trying to follow multiple methods at once.
Inconsistent strength work
Ignoring the foundation that supports performance.
Poor recovery strategy
Not allowing training to actually compound.
Training without feedback
No adjustments, no accountability, no direction.
Common Problems

Liam
Founder & Head Coach of Run Stark
I'm a UK Athletics-qualified running coach, strength and conditioning coach and founder of Run Stark.
I've been running competitively since 2018, completed five of the six World Marathon Majors and achieved personal bests including a 2:30 marathon, 71-minute half marathon, 32-minute 10K and 15-minute 5K.
My coaching knowledge goes beyond my own running. I've spent years developing my craft, learning from Olympic-level coaches, studying training methods, exercise physiology and the principles behind high-performance running.
I've also spent time coaching in Kenya alongside elite athletes, gaining first-hand experience of the environments, training philosophies and cultures that have helped produce some of the world's best distance runners.
Through Run Stark, I coach runners of all levels, from complete beginners preparing for their first event to experienced athletes chasing personal bests from 5K to the marathon.
My goal is simple: help you arrive at your next start line fitter, stronger and better prepared than ever.
