It has been a pleasure to work with Adrian over the last year or so. From prepping for ultra distance trail runs, to a variety of cycling distances and disciplines, the support and guidance from Adrian has been invaluable. The structure and rhythm of the sessions and weeks have allowed me to really enjoy the training and process and improve as an endurance athlete. Looking forward to many events together in the future!

Living in China, I needed a coach that understood the challenges of training and racing in another country. Since having Adrian by my side, it was clear that I had a coach and not a trainer. Through building a relationship with him, things were clear. Every workout had a purpose that contributed to the “bigger goal” and that was made clear to me through constant communication. From this, the most important aspect of an athlete - coach relationship was established. Trust. Trusting Adrian, the process and my abilities were key in achieving the goals we had set out. Adrian has ensured that when I stand at the start-line, I am prepared to be my best, against the best. It’s not the person who has the best goals. It’s the person who has the best systems and preparation that allows them to achieve their goals.

I first contacted Adrian in 2021 needing help to finish my first 100km Skyrun. In the previous year I completed the 65kms race (training by myself and a complete novice runner) and realised that I needed someone who knew what they were doing if I wanted a decent chance at running 100kms. Adrian’s coaching and help was just perfect and after finishing, the ultra big bit me hard. He has subsequently helped me finish 6 trail ultra marathons (5 of them above 100kms within 12 months). Adrian’s approach is ideal for me and his “less is more” approach fits my lifestyle perfectly. He knows just how to tweak programs if you’re carrying an injury and he has a wealth of knowledge and experience having worked with numerous elite athletes from different sporting backgrounds. He has taken a complete novice runner (I have a professional rugby background) and allowed me to cover some remarkable distances and environments.

Scientific, smart, structured personalised endurance training plans to help you achieve results you never imagined possible. Adrian’s knowledge, his personal experience in endurance racing and his calm, adaptive approach, has taken my running to a next level. Despite living with an autoimmune disease and having heart surgery in 2018, I have been fortunate enough to not only take part in challenging mountain adventures, but also to achieve results far beyond my own beliefs and expectations. Joining Leroux Coaching in 2019 has been one of the best decisions I could ever have made! If you are looking to up your game, Adrian will help you smash your goals.

If you're wanting to finish an ultra distance trail run injury free and comfortably, I would definitely recommend lerouxcoaching. Adrian definitely helped me achieve that which I thought was impossible. Thank you Adrian for all your effort and sharing your knowledge.
