Not marketing, not taking any new athletes (just an FYI). Just hate to see really bad advice given and there's just too much of it here. Rather than ask your mechanic about your kidney function just seems prudent to ask your doctor :). Will you pay more, of course but your kidneys won't need an oil change :)


Fine. You're not taking any new athletes.

So, now its impossible for the average Joe to run a 4 hour Marry without the services of a $300 / month coach? Are you really comparing and endurance coach to a kidney surgeon?

You still have offered nothing of substance, except vague criticism of (some or all of---even that isn't clear) the advice offered by others who actually ARE trying to be helpful. If you've got something more useful to say, then why don't you do so? You haven't even been specific enough to give the OP an idea of WHERE to look, or what advice was more suspect/on-target. You have literally done NOTHING to be helpful if the OP is unable to spend the money you suggest.

In your mind, there's no room for something between NOTHING useful, and a $300/month dynamic coaching relationship?

No one expects you to give away your secrets for free on the internets. But they was I see it, so far your posts has been the opposite of helpful. They've only created MORE confusion---rather than give the OP any kind of idea about where to look, assuming that he is unable to afford a coach. Not everyone considers $1000-$1500 a modest sum of money.

ETA: I have no issue with paid coaches such as yourself remaining silent or choosing which threads they wish to offer a free nugget here or there, as it is their/your livelihood. Thus far, all have refrained from this thread. I just think, that if you're going to jump in and criticize EVERYONE who IS trying to help...then be, at least, somewhat helpful yourself.
