We Help
You Run Far.

Hi – welcome to Marathon Handbook!
I’m Thomas, and I help people run far every day.
After conquering marathons and ultramarathons, I became a running coach to help others achieve their running goals!
Since starting Marathon Handbook in 2015, I’ve now written articles and designed training plans used by tens of thousands of runners . . . and developed a few courses along the way.
