“I was in this annoying cycle of being injured then not and I knew I had to change something, and when this challenge came up and it fitted perfectly to what I needed to get out of that cycle. The overall structure of the plan, the QnA, the Zoom classes, the challenge always had something going on to help me from helping me improve my mindset on running. I loved that I had a plan I needed to stick to, and knowing that this plan will help me achieve the goals that I had set out in the beginning.”

“I contacted Lewis following an injury in the hope that he could help me to run sensibly and consistently and become stronger. He has been coaching me for over 3 months now and I am amazed by the results. I am benefiting immensely in terms of confidence and strength. I couldn’t be happier in my running and I am achieving faster race times too! Lewis is friendly, professional and incredibly easy to deal with. His passion to help others is clear and his wisdom and support is second to none. I often feel he cares as much about my running as I do and I would highly recommend him”

Paula – Leicestershire, UK

“Working with Lewis for the last 5 months has taking me to a marathon time I could only dream of. Going from 3.22 to 2.55 in 16 weeks training and in only my 2nd marathon. Also PB’d in all other distances. His plans are easy to follow and he is always on hand for advice if needed. Advice is also given on mindset, strength and conditioning and form to create an all round better runner! I’ve absolutely loved working with him and can’t wait to see what we can do over the next 12 months!”

Steven – Worcestershire, UK

“This is a great coaching program. The coaches had a close look at my running history, understood my aims, listened to my feedback and helped me improve (I improved my 10K time by more than two minutes and will hopefully get a new marathon PB out of it as well. Would recommend it to anyone  looking to improve their running!”

Peter – London, UK

“Asking Lewis to take me on in the build up towards my 12th marathon at Chicago this year, was the best thing to happen to me for my running performance so far. To take off over 8mins from my PB with a 2:46:31 finish was beyond what I considered possible before starting this process. I can not recommend New Levels Coaching highly enough for reaching your goals & helping get the most joy you can from your running. So very grateful for the whole experience and knowledge gained. Thank you!”

Gareth – New Zealand

“Totally recommend New Levels Coaching. I signed up with Gemma to train for the Amsterdam marathon and with the help of a super easy to use app she has coached me through not only my running journey but my strength and conditioning as well. Training with New Levels Coaching helped me run a 15 minute PB which was 10 minutes quicker than my plan!! Gemma managed my plan on a week by week basis, adjusting super quickly when I had small injuries and supporting me through the injuries with guidance and advice on how to get better quicker. I’ll be using signing up with Gemma again for my next race”

Hannah – London, UK

“I met Lewis and Gemma at a Steve Cram Running Camp Nov 2018, I’m a keen recreational runner (I run so I can eat ) my running had plateaued and really needed some professional guidance to really help see what I’m capable of. Having chatted with Lewis over a beer I approached him to see if he would be interested in helping me. We had an initial call to review my goals, my goal was a big one the VLM 2019! We started my plan in December 2018, I’m now going into week 10 and loving it, the motivation from Lewis and the bite sized structured training has worked so well for me, during my training I’ve hit 4 PBs, half marathon, 10miles, 20k and fastest mile! I’ve been chasing that HM Pb for 6 years… I’m really enjoying my training and finally feeling that I can really smash this marathon.. big thanks to Lewis who had accommodated my frantic career into my plan and completely tailed a programme that works for me .. I’m loving it”

Lou – Hampshire, UK

“Lewis coached me from being unable to run at the start of the year with an Achilles injury to completing the London Marathon in April in a time of 3.53. His weekly structured sessions, enthusiasm and support have enabled me to improve on my 5k 10k and ,Half Marathon times. Top Coach, Full of Knowledge, Lewis takes you to that next level and gets you to be the best runner you can be.”

Nigel – Leicestershire, UK

“I’ve been with New Levels Coaching more or less since it was established and it has transformed my running in all kinds of ways. At 71, I’m stronger, faster and fitter than ever before. The coaching, support and guidance is perfectly tailored to individual needs and the opportunity to meet up at Runner Retreats is invaluable. Highly recommended”

Chris Palmer – Norfolk, UK

“New Levels Coaching are there to help runners of all abilities and it is a fantastic community to be a part of, they are Runners for Runners and have helped me in so many ways. Lewis and the Team have so much knowledge and they are passionate and care about what they do and the runners they Coach. There is no better feeling than texting your Coach after getting a new race PB, often within a minute or two of crossing the finish line! Initially I joined for a block to run well at the London marathon in April, I soon realised I needed a long term view and decided on the full year. I am still on plan now and well into my 2nd year – the whole community along with the other runners is an inspiring place to be. In the first year I ended up running much faster than I could ever have imagined, I have taken 13 minutes off my marathon time and went Sub 3hrs in Valencia and that was way beyond what I thought I could ever run. For anyone that runs I cannot recommend this Team enough, come and be inspired”

Gavin – Leicestershire & Rutland, UK

“I had a crazy idea of trying to run sub 5 hours for our 2nd Marathon meaning we had to knock 14 minutes off our time! We turned to New Levels Coaching for help as we had previously met Lewis & Gemma and they seemed like a perfect fit – we are no ordinary runners, I run pushing my daughter in her wheelchair. Under the guidance of coach Gemma we smashed our goal and needless to say we are still part of team NLC. Their passion for helping others reach their potential shines through and everyone’s achievements are celebrated no matter how small or big. We love having New Levels Coaching as part of our crazy running journey”

Jo & Alice – Chesterfield, UK

“I signed up for a weekend’s running retreat June’23 with some trepidation as I’m no elite athlete having started running 4 years ago aged 57. It panned out better than I could’ve imagined. Great bunch of people leading it along with good folks attending. Just achieved my best time at the Oxford Half so big thanks to Kirsty for her kindly, professional and inspiring coaching. Yup, can’t quite believe I’ve gotten a running coach now!”

Craig – Scotland, UK

“Since being with New Levels Coaching and coached by Kirsty I’ve achieved a 14 mins PB over the marathon as well as smashing my 10k PB and am the healthiest I’ve been in years. I’d suggest joining, you won’t regret it.”
