Verbier

Running coach in Verbier

Verbier is the serious end of Swiss skiing. The terrain above the resort is steep, open and unforgiving of bad technique, which is exactly why private instruction here pays for itself faster than almost anywhere else — an hour spent fixing how you stand on a steep slope changes an entire week.

The season here runs long and the altitude holds snow well into spring. Out of season it becomes a serious hiking and trail base, with the Bagnes valley below and the Grand Combin massif in view. Winter bookings fill up months ahead; if you want a specific week in February, book it in October.

Running

What an hour of running coaching actually covers

Usually one of three things. Form — cadence, foot strike, what your arms are doing on a hill. Pacing — most recreational runners run every session at the same uncomfortable middle speed, and fixing that alone changes results. Or race preparation, where the session is built backwards from a date you have in the calendar.

Hills are not optional here

This is not flat country. Any route from the lake goes up, which means hill technique matters more here than it does for someone training in Amsterdam. It also means your coach will likely take you somewhere with a gradient whether or not you asked.

Common questions

I am slow. Will I be able to keep up?

Your coach runs at your pace, not theirs. A coaching session is not a training run with someone fitter than you.

Do you write training plans?

A session can end with a plan for the next few weeks, and many do. Say when you book that this is what you want so your coach builds the hour around it.

What if it rains?

We run. If conditions are genuinely dangerous — ice, storm — your coach will contact you and we move the session at no cost.

Can I book with a friend?

Yes, if you run at roughly similar paces. Choose the 90-minute session so there is time for both of you.
