I just want to do it properly this time.

If you're a woman training for a race that scares you. If you've downloaded the generic plan, followed it for three weeks, and quietly stopped. If you're 1,500 calories on training days when you should be 2,500 and you know it. If your last coach was a man who told you to "push through" your period.

You're in the right place.

I'm Frankie. I've been coaching women through running, triathlon, and the things life throws at them since 2016. Not from a podium. From the same place a lot of you are starting from.

Three things I won't compromise on

WHAT I COMMIT TO YOU

01

Performance without punishment

No starvation diets. No junk-mile training. No burning women out for a finish line. You fuel enough. You fuel well. You train in a way that supports your cycle, your hormones, and the version of you in ten years.

02

Lived-in empathy

I've trained through periods. Come back from injury. Battled depression. Been hit by a car. Finished Norseman when everyone said I wasn't ready. You're coached by someone who genuinely gets it. Not someone reading a manual.

03

You're not alone

You're juggling kids, careers, maybe expat life, the lot. With very little real support. Pretty Strong is the team in your corner. High communication. Real connection. A community of strong, ambitious women chasing big things together.

Is this you?

Yes, this is me

  • You're a woman.

  • You're training for something. A 5K. A marathon. A 70.3. An Ironman. A comeback after kids. Perimenopause without losing your edge.

  • You're done with cookie-cutter plans.

  • You want a coach who'll push you without breaking you.

  • You're ready to invest in yourself properly.

Not quite

  • You want a quick fix. (I don't do those.)

  • You want a coach who'll say yes to everything. (I'm not that either.)

  • You're not ready to commit to the work. (No judgement. Just not yet.)

  • You're not ready to actually receive help. You'll ask for the plan, then negotiate every part of it. (Coachability is the one thing I can't teach.)

I became the coach I needed

In my early twenties I was signed off work. In and out of hospital with depression and chronic pain. On antidepressants and sleeping pills, then more pills for the side effects of the first ones.

I walked out of the doctor's one day with a bag of medication thinking this cannot be my life.

I came off everything. I started running up and down my car park because I was too self-conscious to run on the road. Three months to get from couch to 5K. Ordered "How to Run a Marathon" off Amazon. Did the London Marathon when everyone said I couldn't.

Nobody consistently had my back through the worst of it. The training did. The food did. So now I have my athletes' backs the way I wish someone had had mine.

FRANKIE’S STORY

Real comebacks. Real women.

FROM THE WOMEN I COACH

★★★★★

I'll be forever grateful to Frankie for believing in me when I couldn't.

Laura Derbyshire

★★★★★

When I think of Frankie I think of Strength, Courage, Tenacity and sheer Will Power. Her never-say-die attitude is an inspiration in itself.

★★★★★

Frankie tailors every week based on how I'm feeling. She tweaks diet, fuelling, rest, sometimes before I even realise I need it. With the plan she set, there was no room for failure.
