Welcome

Hi, I’m Kara Landells,

Strength & Conditioning, Running & Triathlon coach.

With over 12 years of experience as a coach and endurance athlete, paired with my education in sports science, I understand that every aspect of life influences an athlete’s ability to train, recover, and excel.

I recognize that sports hold unique meanings for each individual. My mission is to understand your personal motivation and tailor your training to align with your distinct goals. 

 The evolving mission of Kara Landells Coaching is to empower athletes to realise their true potential, harness their innate power and experience the utmost joy in their training, competition and within the community.

I have developed a number of coaching packages to meet the needs of different types of athletes which can be seen below.

Let’s work together to unlock your full potential!

All one on one programs commence with a 3 month commitment in order to complete the initial 3 phases of rehab. After the first 3 months, participants can choose to continue month to month or change to a different program suited to their needs. This program is ideal for any runner who is looking to work closely with a coach on an ongoing basis, to maximise the effect of their training to achieve new levels of performance.

I was in quite a bad state when I first contacted Kara for help.

Hammy issues, adductor pain and weakness in parts of my body.

In six months I’m now running pain-free. Kara’s phases have helped targeted those areas which are stronger and firing when running.

Throw in mobility, running mechanics, breathing practices and I’m at a stage where I understand the importance of strength and conditioning and

will continue to maintain for life. Kara, your programs and coaching giving me

the confidence to not only compete ultras again but to run better and stronger.

So thank you.
