"I have been working with Endurance Specific for the last 4 years. During this time I have completed 3 international races and 1 local race — 3 of them multi-day events. I have made it to the podium in 3 of the races and placed top ten in the other. The biggest and most valuable thing he has taught me is that easy running makes you go fast!"
