I have worked with Coach Peru since Oct 2024 when I decided that I needed to take my running more seriously and found him through amazing on line reviews.

Coach Peru has brought discipline and focus to my training which was previously just following an online marathon programme. Together we worked on building more varied training runs into my week e.g. speed through a structured specific programme tailored to my needs.

I am a tennis player who wants to run to keep my tennis level as I love tennis so much. In between the 4 marathons I had completed I didn’t run at all, trying to avoid injury. When I did get plantar fasciitis which persisted around my fifth marathon, Coach Peru helped guide me through very specific exercises to get me back to cycling first and then eventually running. We ditched all speed work and focused on a mixture of low intensity running (zone 2) and cycling which saw me run a spectacular marathon (for me) in Boston and get my 6 stars which had been my goal for 7 years!!

What makes Coach Peru stand out as a Coach for me is his ‘whole person’ approach to coaching me to achieve my best, not just focusing on running. I have had a difficult year, not just with injuries but also losing some close family and friends. The very deep conversation we had just before Boston to remember my why really made all the difference in those hard moments and I smashed the Newton Hills as a result.

The other thing that is amazing about coach Peru, is the community he has built at Endurance Dynamic which is so supportive, whatever you need. It is fabulous to see not just myself but everyone really delivering amazing performances, all down to Coach Peru.

I have been working together with Endurance Dynamics since the beginning of 2024, It seems as though I have been here for so long, the journey has been enjoyable and the effort from both sides has been immense.

The team are a vibrant group of people who all support and push each other to achieve the best.

For some context, since I started working with Coach Peru at endurance Dynamics I have progressed from my original Marathon time of 04:48:14 down to 02:59:04 and I have achieved top 10 finishes twice, once at GoodWood and again at Thames Meander, with the most recent finish being a 3rd place position overall at the Thames Meander Marathon.

5 years ago when I started running, I never thought I would break the 3 hour barrier and I did not think i'd be able to achieve as much as I have, but we continued slowly chipping away and forging something incredible

I joined Endurance dynamics 2 years ago now, the coaching offered is more than just a training plan that you need to follow, if you work with Coach Peru, he will be able to help you to extract the potential that you have and understand the best way to do this that works for you.

We have only begun our journey together and there is still plenty of performance to extract. More...

Gary, the journey I have been on with you has been nothing short of incredibly special. Moreover I now get scared at the thought of lining up against you at a race! As a coach, we come runners across all levels and we embrace every journey from beginner to advanced. Watching you grow into the full-blown, strong, confident and advanced marathoner has been such a privilege. I am glad I got to tell you, like so many others, 'I told you so'. Right from Berlin, your first marathon with us back in 2024, I knew with absolute certainty you will be running that sub-3. Onward and upward we go and like you say, this is only the beginning. Your consistency, discipline and dedication is what got you to this point. I was only a part of that. Congratulations on all your amazing running achievements and here is to many more PBs (and that illusive ultra we have been talking about). With much gratitude for your ongoing trust and support in me and our team, Coach Peru.

Before I started training with Coach Peru Fourie, I never thought I could push myself this far. His guidance, patience, and constant motivation helped me achieve goals I once thought were impossible. Age 50 ran 50km.
He know exactly when to challenge you and when to encourage you. The positive energy and passion he bring to coaching make every run worthwhile. I’m truly grateful for the impact he had on my running journey.
Thank you Coach Peru. More...

Thank you for your kind words, Marietjie. You are nothing short of a huge inspiration to other women over 50. You nailed your strength & conditioning like a pro. Despite biomechanical and other health challenges you refused to give up, followed guidelines strictly and proved that you are coachable. I hope many other women of your age will read this and build the believe that they can do what you did too. Congratulations on that amazing ultra and all our other races in the lead up to that. You are a winner in my eyes. Coach Peru

I joined the team after a series of niggling injuries picked up while trying to beat my half marathon PB. Coach Peru patiently put together a programme of running and strength and conditioning to fix all those weaknesses.
Over the two years I have been on the team I have smashed my half marathon PB without injury, and now run two 50k trail ultras. Coach Peru has been instrumental in that step change.
Just as importantly as beating my goals, I’ve become part of the Endurance Dynamics community. Our team is a constant source of support and advice and hope. It’s a pretty inspirational place to be.
In short, I recommend joining! More...

Thank you, Julian for these kind words. Our humble runner, yet a set of massive achievements along the way. It's been an immense pleasure to work with you and to see you break through barriers you previously might have thought 'the impossible'. You are an inspiration for the upper 40-ties male in the corporate sector, still finding the time to reach your goals. Smashing your goal's twice in 3 weeks on the HM circuit and then setting that stunning PB in the 50k ultra with the two races across a 3-week window also, is the stuff of legends. Congratulations on all your achievements and lets get that race-calendar for H2 2026 ticked off with what will be more PB's I am sure! Coach Peru

Working with Endurance Dynamics and Coach Peru closely was a hugely beneficial and educational experience. From going to him with a serious injury to finishing with a 1st half marathon of 1:45. He tailored a rehab plan to get me back on my feet but made sure to ensure that I was only back running when the time was right. Once the rehab phase was completely he stayed calculated and measured to make sure there was no rebound injury, while slowly upping mileage and intensity. He gave you motivation and support that you don’t get from trying to coach yourself. Post race I have used these tools wisely and am preparing to race another half marathon at the end of November eyeing up another PB. Once we parted ways he didn’t just forget about me he often messages and checks in to make sure everything is okay and I have also remained in the groupchat so you can see how well the tight knit group is doing. It’s a community that is all striving to be better under amazing supervision of Coach Peru. I highly recommend endurance dynamics if you want to experience a running journey like no other. More...

Potential in abundance, Ellis. I find myself thinking back at all the daily check-ins, the careful balancing acts to resolve that shin issue and how you progressed week after week. For a younger lad displaying the discipline, dedication and following the guidelines during our rehab journey, its not easy to implement and follow through when I put you on very strict HR protocols, but you did it and absolutely annihilated that Half Marathon at Stockholms. A special journey and one I will remember. Thank you for your support of Endurance Dynamics! Coach Peru

A Truly Exceptional Coach – Beyond Expectations
Working with Coach Peru has been a game-changer in my running journey. From the very first training session, he has consistently gone above and beyond to ensure I not only met my running goals but exceeded them. Under his guidance, I completed several marathons and ultra-marathons, including the iconic Comrades Marathon in South Africa - an experience that will forever be etched in my memory.
What sets Coach Peru apart is not just his incredible knowledge of the sport and his ability to push you beyond what you thought was possible, but also his genuine care for his athletes. He understood my strengths and weaknesses, tailoring every plan to suit my needs and Adapting when niggles appeared. His unwavering belief in my potential helped me conquer challenges I never thought I could overcome.
But beyond the runs, Coach Peru played an integral role in one of the most memorable moments of my life. During the trip in South Africa, he was instrumental in orchestrating a surprise proposal to my now-fiancée. He helped me plan, organise and with his support, I was able to propose in the most magical and unforgettable setting. That’s the kind of coach he is - someone who not only cares about your athletic success but also takes the time to be part of your personal milestones.
If you are looking for a coach who is passionate, dedicated, and genuinely invested in your success, look no further than Coach Peru. I can’t recommend him highly enough. He has been more than a coach - he’s become a mentor, a friend, and someone I’ll always be grateful for. More...

You will give me some tears in my eyes here - you know how emotional I got when you came down that final stretch at Comrades. Doing the team tour on Safari after the race was incredibly special. You are a formidable endurance runner and have not only landed a first podium finish but undertook 2 ultras enroute to your 90k Comrades - The Ultimate Human Race. I will never forget seeing you cross that finish line. Thank you for your support, Will, the pleasure has been mine! Coach Peru

My husband found Peru and, as a Christmas present, surprised me with the gift of a personal running coach. I was terrified! I had terrible back problems, little confidence, and didn’t think I was anywhere near the level to deserve a running coach.

But I was wrong.

Peru is incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. Not only does he have a wealth of experience and advice to share, but he’s also genuinely empowering and positive.

By following his personalised plans, he helped me return to running injury-free. I completed a half marathon and two marathons and got back into the sub-4-hour zone.

As a busy mum of two, I really appreciated working with someone who understands how hard it is to fit runs into a hectic schedule—yet still manages to inspire you to stay consistent and stick to the programme. More...

Coach Peru is just wonderful! He is holistic & motivating in his approach to getting you running fit and achieving your goals (& without injury through proper training + knowledge! ) He's incredibly supportive and really drives belief that you can achieve so much more. Endurance dynamics helped me achieve my fastest ever marathon PB post having 2nd baby (c-section too) after trying many years to reach my goal. Endurance has also a fantastic community & team spirit with other runners to inspire you and support you. Highly recommend to any runner Endurance Dynamics & Coach Peru! More...

A Life-Changing Coach and an Even Better Human

Working with Coach Peru has genuinely changed my life. When I first came to him, I’d only recently started running and had already managed to give myself mild meniscus tears in both knees. I’d just seen a physio and was nervous, unsure if this whole running thing was even right for me. My only goal was to complete a marathon—just one—and to do it safely, in memory of my mum who passed away from ovarian cancer.

What happened over the months that followed went far beyond anything I thought was possible.

Not only did Coach Peru get me to that marathon finish line pain-free, but under his guidance, I didn’t have a single knee issue again. More than that, I’ve become a runner—not just someone who runs, but someone who loves running. It’s now a core part of who I am, and that transformation is entirely thanks to Coach Peru.

From day one, he brought not just motivation and structure, but heart and science. He knew when to push and when to pull back. He reminded me to train smart, to rest when needed, and to keep my “why” front of mind. When things were tough, he often told me to think of my mum. That grounded me. That kept me going. He got it.

He’s a scientist at heart, always measuring, adjusting, fine-tuning—and it shows in the results. Within just a few months of working together, I took 12 minutes off my half marathon time. That still feels insane to say. But somehow, Coach saw that potential before I ever did.

He’s not just a coach—he’s a friend, a mentor, and a genuinely exceptional human being. He’ll meet you where you are, help you train with intelligence and purpose, and make the journey meaningful.

If you’re even remotely considering working with him—just do it. Have the call. You won’t be disappointed. He doesn’t just build better runners; he helps people find strength, joy, and purpose through the process.

I feel so lucky to have found him, and I wouldn’t trade this experience for anything. More...

Dearest Lauren, Having worked with me, you know I am an emotional coach who cares a great deal about his athletes, their journeys, wellbeing and success. To read this gave me tears in my eyes. The coaching world has a bit of a bad reputation and there are a few of us who does this because it comes from a place of love, passion and a tremendous amount of care for each athlete. We get up every day and we work hard for our athletes.... To then have the privilege to go on a journey like the one I went on you is priceless in my view. I get a great deal of value out of the process, I get to share in their wonderful journeys as I did yours. Honestly thank you for these kind words here, they mean a lot to me. I am also so pleased we could be vulnerable in front of each other and that we could make your mum front and centre, a part of this process. I wont forget this journey, Lauren, it will stay with me for life. Thank you that I could be a part of that!

I had trained with Coach Peru for two marathons now. Initially just thought I would work with him for my first marathon at Istanbul but training had gone so well I continued to train with him for my second marathon block for London. Trust the process and he will get you to your goals/targets safely. Great passionate coach! More...

Thank you for your mind message here, Safwan. You are a humble guy and you took on your tra9ining journey with a smile with consistency throughout. What was only supposed to be Instanbul Marathon became a number of Half Marathons and two marathons later. You have immense running talent, I have told you that from early on your journey. Well done for your fantastic achievements along the way, you deserve them. Thank you for the trust you place in me to help guide you along the way!

I've been working with Peru for just over a year, and I’m incredibly grateful for the guidance and support he provided throughout that time. When we started working together, I was coming off a tough calf injury and in the middle of a rehab phase. Peru approached it with care, patience, and a clear plan — gradually rebuilding my strength and fitness the right way.

Within six months, I ran my second sub-3-hour marathon and set a new PB — something I wouldn’t have imagined possible at the start. The following year, I hit a half marathon PB of 1:23 and followed it up with another strong marathon performance, despite challenging race-day conditions. The build-up to that race was one of the most consistent and well-structured blocks I’ve had, and a huge credit to Peru’s thoughtful planning.

What really stood out was his attention to detail and his genuine commitment to the athletes he works with. He’s not just focused on the numbers — he takes the time to understand your goals, your lifestyle, and how to get the best out of you in a sustainable way. I’d highly recommend Peru to any runner looking for smart, tailored coaching and long-term progression. More...

Oh, Andy - you know by now that this coach of yours is an emotional guy when it comes to his athletes - you gave me a tear in my eye here reading this - I know we have had to make so many critical decisions and work so carefully but reading this back now, you achieved success along that way. Thank you for the trust you had placed in me and for the amazing privilege I have had to be on this journey with you. It has been nothing short of an absolute pleasure to work with a dedicated and focused athlete like yourself. For that I say thank you!

Peru is a fantastic coach and really invests time into his athletes, tailoring programmes to personal circumstances. His strength and conditioning programme, alongside the running programme that he had devised, allowed me to see past previous injuries and build confidence in my body which enabled me to comfortably achieve a sub 4 hour marathon in my first attempt over that distance. Peru has created an amazing group that supports and encourages one another to achieve their goals, and I would whole heartedly recommend him and Endurance Dynamics to anyone looking to run half marathons, marathons and ultra marathons in the future.

Its been an amazing journey and to have watched your running go from strength to strength has been so incredible to watch. You smashed that sub-444 target you set out at the beginning with into bloody pieces. You made me a very proud coach - thank you for your trust and your support!

Tokyo was my first marathon working with Endurance Dynamics. Coach Peru tailored my programme most weeks to get the best out of me. When I was injured for the last 6 weeks he was amazing, adapting my daily routine to various non running activities and got me to the start line. I would not have completed the Tokyo marathon without him! More...

Thank you for your kind review, Marc and well done with your brilliant results at Tokyo! You were consistent and any coach's dream athlete to work with, thank you for inspiring others on the team along the way!

Peru and I have been working together for the last 2 years. When we started, I had run a couple half marathons and wanted to attempt my first marathon.

Getting professional marathon coaching from him was one of the best decisions I could have made for my running! With his guidance, I have been able to run 2 sub-3 marathons, something I would have never thought possible when we started.

Peru is both a professional and personal coach, making him extremely easy and enjoyable to work with. He has a structured approach to helping his athletes achieve their goals. His plans are easy to follow with the use of an app. He regularly checks in with his athletes (weekly chat exchanges and calls) to know exactly how the training is going and can quickly adapt when necessary. Peru always prioritizes the wellbeing of his athletes, helping to avoid running injuries. When they do arise, like it did for me, he was able to rehabilitate my injury and get me back to my best!

I can wholeheartedly recommend Peru’s services to those wanting to take their running to the next level.

Thank you for all you do Peru! More...

Such very kind words, Alex. When the going got tough you persevered, when we had to pull back to focu on rehab, you stayed patient and you listened, applied the correct principles, liestened to your body, and the results followed. Well done on your second sub-3 - you are a living legend now. The pleasure has been mine to have been a part of your amazing running journey to date!

Working with Coach Peru has been eye opening. The intelligence in the workout plans has been so impressive and by simply following the given plan and giving feedback on how my body is feeling, my target times have tumbled and I am fitter than ever. This has been achieved in just a few months too.
Much like all of the other 5* reviews, there isn't much more I can add to indicate the value in these programs but whether you want to simply achieve a target like running a marathon, or you want to improve on one like running below a certain time. I couldn't have any more faith in Coach Peru getting you there.

The plans aren't generic, they are detailed and personal to you based on a variety of stats and 1 on 1 conversations. A lot of work goes into them and he is available 7 days a week!

This company and the coaches are great, if you apply what they say and listen you will go very far under their guidance, and if you are honest with them and yourself you will go even further.

Your work ethic is simply some of the best I have seen out there and THAT is why you are seeing the results you are seeing - I only provide guidance, guidelines and make the science work for you individually - the rest is up to you and you did it.

I signed up with Coach Peru and team a few months ago as I wanted to take my running from 'very amateur' to something a bit more accomplished! I didn't really know what to expect but the whole process has left me completely transformed in terms of how I approach and think about running - from the everyday runs I do to how I prepare for events. Throughout, Coach Peru has been incredibly patient with my amateureness and has taught me rather than just prescribed - always explaining the science and reasoning. Ultimately, the team have build a really warm and supportive running community which is a delight to be part of. Strongly recommended for anyone looking to up their running game. Thank you Coach!

Such kind words, Tom and very much appreciated when one puts your heart and soul into helping your athletes become the best running versions they can be - I have the best job in the world and for that I am incredibly grateful every single day - thanks for allowing me and trustingme to be a part of your journey!!

I've been working now with Peru for about 8 months. As someone who had never run more than 5km on the 'odd occasion', and with a relatively limited ambition of running a bit further without knee pain(! ), the change in my running in this short period has been nothing short of astonishing. It's been hard work but what I particularly like is that Peru has developed and applied a structure that focuses not just on running outcomes (further / faster) but which puts injury prevention and enjoyment front and centre. This has given me the confidence to take on challenges that I had never even contemplated... half marathon, marathon... potentially an ultra in 2025. His enthusiasm, encouragement and responsiveness are particular traits that I would call out. Despite being surrounded by a community of runners who are each following their own running journeys, and all of whom are highly impressive(!), I have never been made to feel an outsider. I can't recommend Peru enough. More...

I cannot speak more highly of Endurance Dynamics coaching. Coach Peru is incredibly passionate about his craft and he truly cares about his athletes. His attention to detail is excellent and I am constantly learning. If you have any questions or need any support, coach is always a text message away.

My 5km, 10km and half marathon personal bests have improved drastically in the 7+ months since joining the team. I am due to run two marathons before the end of 2024 and I feel strongly I will achieve the goals we are shooting for. The workouts are nicely varied so you don’t get bored.

Working with Peru from Endurance Dynamics has been amazing! I started working with Peru at the beginning of 2024 and I have enjoyed every moment. With tailor made training plans and routine check-ins, Peru makes sure that every athlete is supported 100% of the time. He is always there when I have any extra questions and is always happy to give so much of his time to provide further advice, support and guidance. He is realistic that everyone has other commitments in their lives and makes sure to tailor your plans to suit your life. My running ability has improved month on month and that is all down to Peru’s training regime and guidance. Endurance dynamics is not a business it’s a running community where we all cheer each other on and support one another no matter where you are or what your goals might be. Peru has created such a positive experience and I would highly recommend you starting your adventure with him today! More...

I value working with you on this journey and I am super excited to watch you excel at Berlin later this month. Thank you for the privilege I have had thus far to be working with you. Its been an absolute joy!

I was looking for a coach as I set out to train for my second marathon and improve my time. After meeting Peru, I was impressed by his meticulous, data-driven approach and signed-on.

Over the last 4 months, everything from the strength and conditioning sessions, to the pacing and running schedule, has been tailored to me , demonstrating his understanding of the holistic needs of each individual runner.

From the get-go, Peru was warm, personable and professional; his heart-on-sleeve approach also fostered a sense of trust and his unwavering belief in me (in all of his athletes) has helped to keep me going. He knows when to push, and cheers the loudest when milestones are smashed or morale is low.

Peru is also a treasure trove of knowledge, tips and tricks. From nutrition and gear through to technique and conditioning, his guidance was instrumental. One also can't forget mentioning his network. A knee issue that cropped up during our training could have been a significant setback, but his swift intervention and connection with a top-notch physiotherapist turned a potential hurdle into a stumbling block. Their combined effort ensured not just my return, but a smarter, safer approach to it.

Peru's expertise, encouraging spirit, and valuable connections are key for any aspiring marathon runner. His coaching isn't just about getting you ready for the race; he makes you fall in love with the journey and unlock what's possible within. More...

Oh Cedrine, where do I begin with you - what an absolute pleasure it has been to get to know you and to be working with you. Every conect we have makes my day - I value people that are not afraid to show vulnerability and I want to thank you that I have been allowed to be vulnerable myself with you on so many occassions. As a coach, I remain human just like all my athletes and its athletes like you who inspire me and who reminds me to be true and authentic always. Thank you and a massive well done on your PB at the Paris Olympics Night Marathon! I am so proud of you!

Since signing up with Peru and the ED team I’ve been so surprised and delighted with the progress I’ve made. Whilst I started with a reasonable level of general fitness, I was certainly not a runner. Fast forward 7 months and with well structured training I’ve ran two half and one full marathon. I’ve also been able to do a sub 20 min 5k which is something I never thought would be possible when I first started. Without hesitation I’d recommend Endurance Dynamics no matter what level of runner you may currently be. More...

Thank you for your kind words here, Stephen. It's been amazing to watch you progress on this journey and I am super excited to see what you will achieve in the coming months - big things that is certain! I always say this to you and I say it again - consistency pay dividends and its your hard work that got you here. Keep up the good work.

To say Im grateful for Endurance Dynamics would be an understatement. Coach Peru found me at my confused state weighing over 138kgs and we have been on an incredible journey together for 6 months now and i am now 28kilos lighter and training for my first ultra marathon. That is insane to me to think I would contemplate to walk from the couch to the fridge now we talking of running more than 80kms. I have successfully completed more than 5 half marathons and running my first marathon soon. A from the bottom of my heart Thank you to the amazing team at Endurance Dynamics for an incredible journey so far and to many more kms together More...

You Mr Male is a huge inspiration to me and to us all. You failed to mention that actually you started your running journey at 147kg and to now be where you are at is nothing short of incredible!! We salute you. There is a reason here why I call you Mike-The-Machine. I cannot wait for all these races and see how your life keeps changing over time. I already don't recognise you every time I see you - champion of champions!

What a great experience I have had through Endurance Dynamics. Coach Peru got me from never running a marathon to doing London in under 3 and a half hours. All in just over four months. He is a great guy and his knowledge and plans are unique and personal to you. If your looking to get better no matter what level give them ago. More...

Thanks for your kind words here, Corey. I always say, I am only the guide, you do the work and your consistency, mindset and dedication is what got you to that sub-03:30 and what a stellar performance it was at London. Well done again to you, you made me very proud!!

Joining Endurance Dynamics is the best decision of my life as they have helped me in coming out from my ITB issues which I was suffering from last 2 years. Coach Peru is fantastic as I am currently under his rehabilitation program where he plan my runs in advance along with pre and post strength & conditioning exercises. Thanks coach Peru for your 24/7 support and bringing my energy & confidence back. I can't be thank you enough for helping me running pain free. I am sure Peru's experience and expertise will help me in achieving my long term running goals. Highly recommend Endurance Dynamics and coach Peru without any doubt. More...

Oh Deepti, you have brought a tear to my eye honestly. This is why I do what I do - not so much being a coach, but to change lives - I really see my job as that. These words are so kind and it gives me so much pleasure to now you can run pain-free again and not just that, two races down now. You are an example to so many that despite your many personal health challenges, you are proof that anyone can do this sport and I am forever grateful our paths crossed and that I can be your Coach! Here is to many more adventures together (strong arm emoji!)

Ellie is an absolute gem of a running coach! She is not only incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, but she is also extremely supportive and understanding of my busy schedule. Training for my first marathon with her guidance has been a game-changer. Not only has she helped me build my confidence, but she has also been a constant source of support and understanding. With Ellie's guidance, I have seen significant improvements in my speed, endurance, and overall performance.
I am so grateful to have Ellie in my corner! More...

Peru is fantastic. Providing solid plans that lay the foundation of the goals you want to get to within your journey, saddled with unbridled support from not just Coach Peru but the whole ED team. I've also had a niggling hip for months prior to training with Peru, but after being given a stretch plan and working through this next to my running + s&c plan, it's not even a thought in my mind these days. Couldn't recommend enough, whether you're a beginner, or seasoned athlete, Peru has the experience and expertise to help you get to where you need to go. More...

These words are so kind, Tori. Thank you very much for taking the time to write a little something here, we are very grateful and I loved working with you! You have the mind of a real champion and love your drive!

I knew from my first teams chat with Peru we were going to get on. I've honestly never met a more genuine person, his infectious enthusiasm and passion for both running and helping others achieve their goals is unwavering. I joined the ED community to rekindle my love of running and Peru and his team have helped me do that and more. I came to find a coach and know wherever my journey takes me I have found a friend. Bring on the support team for Comrades 2025!! More...

Thank you, Sophie what kind words you mentioned there. I appreciate these a great deal and so does Coach Ellie. Can't wait for our international tour support team headed up by Team Watson :)

Peru has been an invaluable resource in my running training. We worked together for a few months and he successfully coached me out of injury and into a PB time at the Hackney Half. He’s proactive in communication, which was critical for me as I had experienced injury at the beginning of the year and often needed advice in dealing with that. The endurance dynamics community is also a great motivating force.

Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to supercharge their running journey. More...

Thanks for your lovely message here, Rayanah. I believe in your 100% and I am so so so excited for what is to come on your journey to Comrades Ultra Marathon 2025. Keep up the good work girl and keep inspiring others!

If you're looking for a running coach who will not only get you to your marathon goals but do it in a way that keeps you free of injuries, look no further than Peru!
I recently trained with him for my last marathon, and it was a great experience.
He's also an incredibly motivating coach who knew how to bring out the best out of me.
Really can't be thankful enough. More...

Ah Jeremy, thank you for your kind words, this means a lot to me. I loved working with you and to see hear Anna and the kids so very proud of you and what you managed to achieve is why I do this job. Always remember it is you who put in the hard yards, I only provide the guidance. Well done to you!

Coach Peru cares about his team. He aims to take into account your personal circumstances and develop a plan for success. I ran my first London Marathon at age 67 with his guidance and encouragement . We focussed on strength work to avoid injury and carefully building endurance. I realised it is a process. ...it worked.

If I can summarise things in one word - INSPIRATIONAL!! Thank you for your kind words here, Kevin it really is special. And than k you to you for inspiring so many others along your journey to know they too can still get active and for the great work you have been doing with Samaritans! It goes without saying that the world needs people like you! What a special moment also to finish London Marathon with both your son and daughter and then I hear next year Lisa will be added to the mix as well. I cant wait. Power-family this one!

Friendly, supportive coaching and advice got me through a rehab period to outperforming my objective in only 4 months.

Thank you for your kind words, Meirion. I think it is safe to say you blew everyone (including me away with that first marathon coming in at a time like that!). Your journey had not been easy but you stuck it out with the rehab and it paid off. The best of you is yet to come and by that I mean - Big Thing! Well done on that amazing result - onward and upward to the next one!

I had the most amazing experience with Peru! I can in a broken man running with multiple injuries. Peru helped immensely with a rehab program which allowed me to run pain free for first time in ages! I was able to run the London marathon and get a time I was delighted with.

Thank you Peru and team EA!! More...

What a journey, Sam. All the daily check ins and carefully designing those first 'steps' little by little took a lot of patience from you but you persevered. You worked incredibly hard and what a delight it has been to work with you. You made us all very proud with that amazing time and performance at London Marathon - what a feat! Well done to you!

Exceptional coaching! I managed to improved my personal best in the marathon by 1:07 min within 6 months of training with Coach Peru. His experience and expertise has been incredibly valuable in my training process, helping me build the correct structure, apply the right balance of aerobic base, speed and quality in my schedule.

Prior to training with Peru, I had a lot of injuries but through his coaching I managed to prevent having any. This was the result of undertaking the right strength and conditioning which build me up to where I am now. More...

Wow wo wow and wow again. Only the second athlete on our team to improve a marathon PB in such a short time by over 1 hour. You did incredible, Willem. Despite all your business commitments, travel and family commitments, you found the time to train consistently - many times through the snow!! What a champion. Keep going Willem, your best is yet to come. Fight for what you believe you can achieve and you will! Absolute pleasure to have you on the team!

Peru is a knowledgable and understanding coach who really cares about his athletes. The community of runners he has built in Endurance Dynamics only add to the support that his coaching offers. If you have a running goal to take things to the next level, hit that marathon time or complete your first ultra, Peru is your man. More...

Thanks for your kind words, Nathan. I drew a lot of inspiration from you for myself personally. You faced many challenges, yet you got up and you fought through these to reach your potential. Immensely proud of you and want to thank you for your patience during those weeks we had to slowly and carefully work through your rehabilitation!

I’ve been with Coach Peru and his amazing team for 6 months now, he made me feel like a true athlete, upgraded my life dynamics and I wouldn’t hesitate a second to recommend his professional, science led and full of passion team. Peru not only helped me achieve my goal to successfully prepare for London Marathon - such an enjoyable process and no injuries, with a great result I couldn’t dream of before. He also explored my potential and inspired me want to go further and further. You will also be part of his community filled with amazing people. Thank you Peru, you led by example, you care about everyone in your team and your strategies, planning and cheerleading is first class !! More...

Powerhouse lady. I said it to you on day dot - you will be an outstanding endurance runner. Then we did the Running Lab Assessment and the report said - optimal physiology for endurance running - at this point she started to believe it a little more. BUT it was when she believed in her training and herslef and when she smashed out that perfect race strategy at London that she knew. I hope you now see what the rest of us experts see Angie. Keep going, there are huge things to come from you. What a delight it has been to coach and to continue to coach you. The team will not be the same without you!

Peru has been coaching me since November & has not just improved my running times but also given me the tools to avoid injury, build mental strength I didn’t know i had & shares a great passion for his athlete’s

Thanks for your kind review, Eoin, Absolute pleasure taking you to that amazing first marathon and so pleased you reached your goal. I told you throughout your consistency will pay dividends and it did, well done!

Been working with Coach Peru for over 6 months! Taken me from novice runner to completing ultra marathons & shaving chunks off all my personal bests. His approach is amazing he puts his athletes first & at the heart of everything he does. He creates a bespoke plan which includes strength + conditioning to help reduce injury. Have genuinely loved being coached by Peru he’s always there & has so much experience which has supported me on my journey to where I am now. Will keep working with him for years to come More...

That is very kind Ellie - honestly supporting you at your last ultra and seeing you come in 22nd female out of 2700 females is something I wont forget. Remember I guide only, you do the work. Well done!! It's a pleasure to coach you.
