Why train with a plan?
The Bouddi Coastal Run is one of the Central Coast’s most scenic and rewarding trail events—featuring ocean views, native bushland and a good mix of singletrack, fire trail, and stairs. But don’t be fooled by the distance—this 14km course packs a punch with its rolling elevation, technical sections and sneaky climbs.
Training without a clear plan often leads to one of two things: doing too much too soon (and getting injured), or not doing enough (and fading on race day). Our Bouddi 14k Training Plan helps you find that sweet spot—building fitness gradually, improving technique, and keeping you on track all the way to the finish line.

“When I joined my average pace for a 5km race was 6:53 min/km with elevation gain of 53m…
I recently did the 50km Coastal Ascent and my average pace was 6:55 min/km with elevation gain of 1454m.
Not bad I reckon! So, thanks again for your plans! ”

Frequently asked questions
Is this program suitable for a beginner?
This program is designed for runners who have a solid base of consistent training but are new to trail running or stepping up to the half marathon distance. You should be running around 20–25km each week and able to complete a long run of 8–10km comfortably. The plan builds gradually, focusing on endurance, strength, and confidence over mixed terrain. You’ll complete longer weekend runs, mid-week intervals, and trail-specific mobility and strength work to help you prepare for race day without injury.
Can you help me train when I'm injured?
Probably, depending on your injury.rnWe are very sorry to hear you are injured. We know how difficult that can be.rnrnIf you have an injury that requires some rest from running, there are almost always some cross-training options available to help you maintain your fitness, strength, and sanity. By cross-training while you are injured, and including some simple strength, stretching and foam rolling routines, you will speed up your recovery time and ultimately make your return to running easier and more successful.rnrnYou can start our free 4 week cross training plan now for FREE.rnrnIt will help you to identify appropriate exercises based on your injury type and recommend what cross training methods will work best for your injury. When you are ready you can start our 10-week return to running program (url) or one of our run-specific rehab plans.
Can I start this program late?
You get immediate access to your training plan when you join. You can view the current week plus any previous weeks if you are training for a specific event.rnrnWe recommend that you start with a weekly volume that your body is currently able to cope with, which might mean starting on the beginner level before moving to intermediate a few weeks later.
