Online Coaching

How does Pat Carroll Online Coaching differ to a generic program/ONE SIZE FITS ALL?: Knowing that you’ll be accountable to me will provide you with extra incentive to stay true to your goal. Additionally, generic programs fail to individually suit an individuals “current” level of development and life style. It’s important to train “smart” and gradually build on where you’re “currently” placed as well as factor in time availabillity whilst targeting short term and long term goals.

I have enlisted Pat as my online running coach for the past 2 years. I was thrilled with my 3:30 at the 2025 Gold Coast Marathon, which is 34mins faster than 2024. I totally benefited from Pat’s encouragement and his program. Pat continues to guide me – bring on Gold Coast 2026. To reach your goal, I recommend Pat’s program.

Honestly can’t thank you enough Pat. As someone who likes to train alone, the virtual coaching is perfect for me. Also, it made a massive difference post-race as well. Aside from some chafing and a black toenail, I wasn’t even sore the next day.
