Hi, I’m Lynette.

Running has been a catalyst of change for me. It has been my motivation for wanting to progress and to achieve, as well as giving me the freedom to explore and seek adventure. Running gave me the confidence to seek a new direction and focus in my life. Seeing the confidence levels rise in the women I coach, as well as the connections being made and goals being realised, are what keep me striving to be a better and more informed coach. 

My purpose as a coach is to inspire and motivate others to explore their own possibilities. Running and strength training can teach us so much about our mental and physical endurance and how we cope under stress and pressure, which translates into our daily lives.

My clients work with me to help them to improve their running technique and efficiency, to help them build strength and core stability to run further and longer. I create specific individualised plans to keep them working towards creating good daily habits so that they can reach their goals and beyond.

Training with me is purely focused on your needs, whether you want coaching in running, strength or both as part of an overall fitness package. I split my time between training at Adapt Fitness in the daytime and group training through We Run Edinburgh in the evenings and weekends.

WHERE TO FIND ME

ADAPT FITNESS EDINBURGH

Adapt Fitness Edinburgh is a small private studio in the heart of Leith. I feel at home here in this amazing community of perseverance and opportunity. 

AF Edinburgh was born of the belief that beautiful things happen when strong women support each other and unite to discover their full potential.

Our new personal training studio promises to be the kind of place that you feel comfortable and confident in, to explore the possibilities and try something new. We firmly believe that’s how exercise should feel.

I would love to welcome you to our wee space and show you how different training in a gym can be when you have the space to be yourself and the privacy to do so.

 

WE RUN EDINBURGH

We Run Edinburgh is a women’s running community exploring the roads, trails, hills and paths that Edinburgh has to offer. The group was born of a love for the city and the women who run in it. Whether you are a PB chaser or starting out, everyone has their reason to run. 

We want to run stronger, happier and confident and together as a group it is possible when we support each other to reach our goals. We are a welcoming group and would love to see the community grow. 

There are a variety of courses and group runs to get involved with that cater for all running levels.
