Race Package

Training support for runners in Derby

Structured support throughout your race preparation

Train with confidence

Preparing for a race is exciting, but it can also be physically demanding. As training progresses and mileage increases, your body is constantly adapting to new challenges.

Whether you're preparing for your first 10K, chasing a marathon personal best or taking on an ultra-distance event, our Race Package is designed to support you throughout your training journey with expert advice, ongoing monitoring and practical treatment when you need it.

Why we created the Race Package

As runners ourselves, we understand that training for an event can quickly become expensive.

Race entries, running shoes, nutrition, travel and accommodation all add up, and professional support can sometimes feel like another cost runners simply can't justify.

We wanted to change that.

The Race Package was created to make ongoing physiotherapy support more accessible and affordable throughout a training block. Rather than paying for individual appointments as and when problems arise, the package combines assessment, follow-up and recovery treatment into one discounted package.

Our aim isn't to keep bringing you back unnecessarily. It's to provide the right support, at the right time, helping you train consistently, recover well and arrive at race day feeling as prepared as possible.

The Race Package offers better value than booking each appointment individually, while providing continuity of support throughout your training.

What's included?

✔ One Running MOT

Begin your training with a comprehensive running assessment.

We'll discuss your running background, current training, previous injuries and future goals before completing a running-specific physical assessment. You'll receive personalised recommendations together with reassurance about the areas where you're already doing well.

✔ One follow-up appointment

Training changes as race day approaches.

This appointment provides an opportunity to review your progress, discuss how your body is responding to training, answer any questions that have arisen and adjust recommendations where appropriate.

Sometimes the most valuable part of this appointment is simply the reassurance that everything is progressing as expected.

✔ Two 30-minute sports massage sessions

Use your massage appointments when they are most valuable to you.

Many runners choose one shortly before race day and another afterwards to aid recovery, although the timing can be tailored to suit your training and individual needs.

Who is the race package for?

The Race Package is suitable for runners preparing for any race including:

✔ 5K events

✔ 10K races

✔ Half marathons

✔ Marathons

✔ Ultra-marathons

✔ Trail races

It is suitable for both first-time runners and experienced athletes looking for structured support throughout a training block.

What are the benefits?

The Race Package is designed to help you:

✔ Train with greater confidence

✔ Better understand how your body is responding to training

✔ Manage increasing training loads

✔ Identify areas that may support performance and recovery

✔ Receive personalised advice as your training progresses

✔ Have ongoing access to professional support throughout your preparation

Just as importantly, many runners find reassurance in knowing they have someone to turn to if questions or concerns arise during training, rather than waiting until something becomes a significant problem.

Is the package right for me?

The Race Package is intended for runners who are currently training without a significant injury.

If you're experiencing pain or have developed a running injury, we'd usually recommend starting with an Initial Physiotherapy Assessment so we can diagnose the problem and advise on the most appropriate management.

Once you're back on track, the Race Package may then provide valuable ongoing support throughout the remainder of your training.

If you're unsure which appointment would be most appropriate, simply get in touch. We'll always recommend the option we genuinely believe will benefit you most.
