Success Stories
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I just finished a very slow marathon - but a pr for me... I credit it to more interval training and to pop-glute work..
Thank you

8 minutes faster year over year… at the same marathon.
Looking at my splits from last year to this year, the improvement is unreal.
2024 marathon: 4:02:00 (5:44/km)
2025 marathon: 3:53:59 (5:33/km)
I felt smoother, more confident, and way more consistent throughout the race. The drills and cues Sam taught me — especially the pendulum concept — helped me stay in a good rhythm and avoid the usual late-race fade.
Super grateful for the support. Big difference.

"Mind blown 🤯 at my progress"
"It’s an unreal feeling to me how truly changing your training has been. I have ALWAYS struggled to run. My biggest problems with running are pain in my calves, feeling laboured and out of breath. In the last 18 to 24 months I’ve also l had plantar fasciitis on and off.
Training with your drills for 2.5 weeks and I can run slowly but consistently for 30 mins without pain, without being out of breath. I’ve gone from thinking I will have to endure pain, balance possible injuries and/or just except I’m not able to run to .. being mind blown 🤯 at my progress after just a few weeks and finding running really enjoyable. I look forward to my next run so much I want to run every day. Every time I run I just keep improving.
I can not recommend Sam’s Pop training enough ! Sam is patient, passionate, relatable and honestly fun to work with. Whether you are new to running, wanting to enjoy running more with less pain, looking to improve your times, or simply wanting to prevent and stop persistent injuries, Sam’s training will help you immensely no matter your level or experience. It’s truly amazing! Highly recommend 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️ ."

“I finished a 2,400 ft elevation half marathon feeling strong, pain-free, and excited for the next one.”
“This race was a big step for me. I stayed injury-free (a major improvement after my last half). My hip flexors held up better than they ever have, and the new running form Sam taught me really showed its value — especially in the second half.
Cardio felt solid. Legs and technique started fading after 10k, but that just showed me where to build next. Even with that, I hit my pacing goals on the flats and declines and ran some of the shorter hills, which I’m super happy about.
Overall:
19th place out of 54
2:43:18 finish
2,400 ft elevation
And honestly the most confident I’ve ever felt in a long race.
