Private Coaching for Ambitious Runners
Hit your goals with the most comprehensive online running coaching - or get your money back (seriously)
Most amateur runners aren’t failing because they’re lazy or not “talented enough”…they’re just making a handful of fixable mistakes without even knowing it!
Perhaps you're not addressing the limiting factors that would improve your performance, or completing training that is irrelevant to the demands of the race you're preparing for.
You might be managing niggles poorly or failing to periodize training appropriately in the lead up to races.
Maybe you're using a generic cookie-cutter plan, following a training philosophy that doesn't account for your unique physiological makeup.
​
Everyday runners often unnecessarily struggle due to these simple mistakes and can quit out of frustration before ever achieving their goal. Missing out on that euphoric finish line feeling!
​
The road to achieving your goals can be much smoother, more enjoyable and faster just by avoiding these mistakes.
​
These mistakes are not made as a Valiturus runner.
This is where Valiturus training comes in
My name is Dylan, and I'm the founder of Valiturus.
​
Valiturus is my bespoke (personalised) running & strength coaching service which is designed to...
​​
Develop YOUR weak spots whilst maximising YOUR strengths, in a way that is tailored to your physiology, your physical capacities, your injury history, your time constraints, and accounts for your life stressors, to ensure you achieve this important goal of yours.
​
Everything is centred around YOU - there is no overarching training philosophy, the training is adapted based on where YOU are right now.
Here's what you get when you train with Valiturus
After our initial video chat where we will discuss your training history, goals, current lifestyle, training preferences etc etc. You will be on your way.
​
Running coaching is delivered via TrainingPeaks & strength coaching is delivered via Train Heroic, with plans updated weekly and revised daily “on-the-fly” when needed.
​
-
Run sessions sync with your watch, and data flows straight back to me post-run so I can keep an eye on everything. If you're stressed, had a rough night of sleep, a long day at work, or your Achilles starts talking back, we’ll adjust in real time - the way coaching should be.​​​​​​
​
-
Drills, plyometrics & sprints will be prescribed as a pre-run warm-up to develop running economy, improve speed, reduce the risk of injury, and adjust technique (if necessary).​
​
-
Strength sessions are solely mobility & strength training.
​
-
Endless video revision for coaching and cueing the technique of lifts, drills, plyometrics and sprints. If your running technique needs to be altered as well, we will also consistently assess that and implement specific drills.
​
You’ll also have full access to me, 24/7.
​
-
Don’t hesitate to send me a voice note at 3 am if you have a question or a problem. I’m in your corner the whole way. I’ll be checking in with you regularly, reviewing videos, making training adjustments, and helping you problem-solve.​
Valiturus is hands-on coaching, not a generic subscription plan in disguise. I work with each of my athletes on a personal level, communicating with them daily. So far, I have worked with 21 runners, and every single one of them has achieved PBs, achieving goals that they set out towards. Not one person has been let down by Valiturus. You think we couldn't get you over the line as well?
​
I’ve also got an Undergraduate & Postgraduate degree in Exercise Physiology, but what matters more is that I coach like it actually counts. Because for you, it does.​
What other Valiturus runners think of the training:
Joe Ardagh (2:56 Marathoner with Valiturus)
"Before I met Dylan I had been running for a few years, with no real direction. I had lost a bit of weight and gotten a bit faster and fitter but hit a plateau. Since being with Valiturus, I demolished my goal of a 3hr 30min marathon, and have since gone on to run under 3hrs at Hawkes Bay. Dylan's process is very detailed, and he will explain all the reasoning for why he is training you in a particular manner, and how he expects it to benefit you. His comprehensive understanding of biomechanics and strength and conditioning means all the effort you put in as an athlete has an extremely high rate of benefit"
​
Lachlan Haitana (70 minute half marathon runner)
"Been a customer of Dylan's online coaching services for nearly four years now. Takes all of the guesswork out of my training. No matter what I want to train towards. Dylan is always there to pivot and provide a blueprint on how to get there - from gaining muscle to running a faster half marathon. 100% recommend Valiturus to anyone serious about becoming a better athlete or healthier individual"
​
Ryan Dixon (Hit multiple PBs following training with Valiturus)
"I can't speak highly enough of Valiturus and Coach Dylan. Although I was already an avid runner prior to starting with Dylan. I had begun to plateau and training had become stale. Since starting with Dylan my enjoyment and running ability have increased exponentially. The combination of running-specific gym training, group running, diverse workouts, and expert feedback has helped me set PBs in everything from the 10km to marathon in less than a year"
​
Chris Rowe (Slashed 10 minutes off his half marathon time in 3 months of Valiturus)
"I can thoroughly recommend working with Dylan at Valiturus. I approached him last year with the goal of setting a PB in my half marathon time. He took the time to work around my shift work schedule and built a plan to get me where I needed to be. The training was manageable but pushed me. The strength training was a vital element in seeing myself improve. I also have a long-term issue with a bulging disc, and Dylan helped me work around this. After 12 weeks with Valiturus, I achieved a 10-minute personal best in my half marathon time"
​
Nic Mills (Achieved lifetime goal of sub 90 minute half marathon with Valiturus)
"Over the past 18 months under the guidance of Coach Dylan. I have achieved more than what I thought possible - the highlight running a sub-90-minute half marathon on the Gold Coast (5 minutes faster than my goal time). The positivity and knowledge at Valiturus creates an environment where success is the only option, failures not. Give it a go and surprise yourself too!"
​
John Morrison (smashed half marathon PB by 10 minutes with Valiturus)
"I would definitely recommend Dylan at Valiturus Conditioning. He knows his stuff and was great at tailoring a programme to my personal needs. Thanks to him I have smashed my PB by more than 10 minutes."
​
Andrew Pointon (From cyclist to 33 minute 10km runner with Valiturus)
Valiturus has helped me smash my goals out the park. With Dylan's extensive knowledge, I have competed at the highest level whilst also avoiding injury"
