About The Running Guy

The Running Guy is a Canberra-based running coaching service helping runners of every level become stronger, more consistent and more complete athletes. Founded and coached by Aston, it focuses on personalised training built around the individual rather than generic plans, drawing on a genuine racing background and a hands-on coaching philosophy.

The service is built for distance and surface flexibility, with written training programs designed for any event from road to trail and beyond, plus squad-style coaching for runners who thrive with structure and accountability. Beyond the programs themselves, The Running Guy puts real weight on education, motivation and ongoing support, sharing knowledge through a podcast, YouTube videos and an active community across social media.

Whether you are chasing a first finish line, a new personal best or simply more enjoyment in your training, The Running Guy offers coaching that adapts to your goals and lifestyle. It suits Bonython and greater Canberra runners who want expert guidance and a supportive squad environment, whether they prefer a fully tailored program or a more community-driven approach to their running.
