About benedetta

Running has been a huge part of my life for years, from chasing personal bests to exploring mountains and new cities on foot. My passion for understanding the science behind performance led me to become both a UESCA Running Coach and a certified Nutrition & Health Coach. I work with runners of all levels, helping them improve performance, reduce injury risk and enjoy the training process through personalised coaching built around their lifestyle and goals.

Coaching Philosophy

I believe that becoming a better runner is about much more than simply running more miles. While a well-designed running plan is essential, the real difference often comes from what happens outside the run.

Strength training and nutrition are the secret weapons that allow runners to perform at their best, stay healthy and continue improving over the long term. Strength builds resilience, improves running economy and helps reduce injury risk, while proper nutrition fuels training, supports recovery and maximises adaptation.

My coaching combines these three pillars - running, strength and sports nutrition - into one personalised approach. Every athlete is different, so I tailor each programme to their goals, experience, lifestyle and available training time.
