ZONE Coaching is led by Lee Perry, a running coach whose own journey in sport shapes the way he works with every runner. After competing in track, cross country and half marathon events in his younger years, Lee returned to running with a clear goal: to build a coaching service that gives everyday runners the same level of care, detail and support often reserved for elite athletes. He believes coaching should never be generic and that every runner, whatever their level, deserves a plan built around their own goals, lifestyle and circumstances.

That personal approach sits at the heart of ZONE Coaching. Lee works with beginners, experienced runners and everyone in between, creating coaching that is supportive, realistic and focused on long-term progress. His aim is not only to help runners perform better, but also to help them enjoy the process, build confidence and keep moving forward with purpose. Lee’s qualifications include UESCA Endurance Running Coach, England Athletics Running Coach, Level 3 Personal Trainer, Strength and Conditioning Coach, and Level 4 Nutritional Sports Coach.
