Running Coaching for Runners and triathletes

Run With me.

CERTIFIED RUNNING COACH AND LEVEL 2 FITNESS TRAINER.

As a fellow runner, I understand the journey, the challenges, and the victories. Whether you're just starting, aiming for a new personal best or distance, or looking for advice, I'm here to support and motivate you along the track.

I focus on a holistic approach that helps you train with your body, not against it.

My role goes beyond teaching. For me, it's all about empowering you by offering highly individual support and sharing knowledge. I want to enable you to take control of your training. So you'll not only reach your goals but also gain the skills to plan and adapt your training independently.

Get in touch

My philosophy.

My coaching philosophy is simple:

I want to give you the best possible individual support and empower you to Own your Training.

My training is for everyone.

It's for beginners who want to get it right from the start. And for ambitious runners who want to improve or prepare for a race.

I also specialise on triathletes and other multi-sport or hybrid athletes.

Holistic.

I take a holistic approach to running. In other words: Our training isn't just about running and clocking up high weekly mileage. I rather prefer to run less and add alternative activities like cycling and swimming instead. So our training will also include cross-training, strength, mobility, nutrition, recovery and mental balance. For female runners, we also take your menstrual cycle into account.

Individual.

Data and facts are the basis. But there are also personal factors, such as your everyday life, hobbies, time, personal preferences, etc. We tailor your training to your individual goals and training capabilities. With me, there's no such thing as strict training plans that leave no room for your daily life. It's possible to adapt your training at any time.

Fun.

Last but not least: Training should also be fun. If you don't enjoy it, you won't be motivated. I want to ignite that spark of activity within you and encourage you to shift your mindset and find true joy in movement.

My training Package for you.

When you choose me as your coach, you always get the full package, tailored to your needs.

I don't offer basic or premium packages or strict training plans. With me there is only one plan: the one that suits you best.

This is my gold standard for you.

What my athletes say

I tried many training plans and coaches. But it never really worked for me. With Katha, I feel like I have a coach who is really focused on me and cares about me as an individual. Training with Katha never gets boring and her plans always challenge me in a good way.

Susanna H.
Katharina is a great coach! Her enthusiasm for the sport is infectious. She has taught me so much about running and the right technique. With her help, I managed to run my first 10k in under 60 minutes. My next goal is now the half marathon.

Kätlin T.
Katha made me fall in love with running. As a novice, I wanted to find the joy in running without feeling overwhelmed. She understood my experience level and guided me thoughtfully through my journey to becoming a runner. Her passion and enthusiasm for the sport are truly contagious and has now caught me too.

Tamy S.
I have had the pleasure of working with Katharina for over a year now. She is a very dedicated, knowledgeable and attentive coach. She understands my running goals and always creates a personalised plan to help me achieve them. Her training plans are never boring. Since working with her, I’ve learned so much about myself as a runner and discovered what I’m truly capable of.
