Frequently Asked Questions
Not at all. You don’t need a base level of fitness, a certain pace or a recent race to get started. I work with women who are just rediscovering running, women rebuilding after time away, and women chasing marathon PBs.
Where you’re starting from doesn’t matter - what matters is where you want to go!
Absolutely, this is exactly why RunningRewire exists.
Hormonal changes can affect sleep, energy, recovery, motivation, body composition and injury risk. We adjust your training around what your body needs, week by week, so you can keep progressing without burning out.
You don’t push through it alone.
Your plan is flexible and I adapt your sessions to match what’s realistic for your energy, stress and recovery that week. Some weeks we have planned recovery weeks, where we dial things back but if we need to take one sooner than planned, that's ok - that’s how midlife athletic training should work.
You’ll get a personalised training plan delivered weekly through Final Surge.
We check in regularly, review your progress, adjust sessions, and make sure your training fits your real life. It’s structured, supported and completely tailored to you.
It happens, especially in midlife when recovery can be a bit slower.
We adapt your plan, keep you moving in ways that support healing, and build back safely. You’re never left guessing or Googling “what to do now?”
Absolutely! Whether it’s a 5K, 10K, half marathon, marathon or ultra, we’ll create a plan that supports your goals and your hormonal changes. Many of my athletes are training for big goals in their 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond.

Yes. Strength work is essential during peri- and post-menopause for bone health, muscle maintenance, power and injury prevention. I include strength recommendations or full sessions depending on your coaching package.
I don’t write specific diet plans, but I absolutely guide you on fuelling for training, recovery, peri-menopause health, and performance. Nutrition becomes even more important in midlife running. If you require more help in this area, I can refer you to a specialist nutritionist.
You pay monthly for ongoing coaching. There’s no long-term contract, just a minimum of 3 months (with 1 months notice should you decide to stop. You can stay as long as it’s helping you, and many women stay for years because they enjoy the support.
Yes, absolutely. If you need a break for medical reasons, injury, financial changes or just because life feels a bit too much, you can pause your membership.
Pausing secures your spot so you can come back when you’re ready, and you can stay on pause for up to 3 months. Just let me know and we’ll sort it — no stress, no guilt.
Just head to my contact page and say hello.
