About me

Running is personal.
So is coaching.

Class I fitness running coachCzech Athletics Federation
FTVS, Charles University · master's degreeFaculty of Physical Education and Sport, Charles University

I am Marek Oliva, a running coach in Prague and a qualified Class I fitness running coach. I completed my master's studies at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Charles University, earning the Mgr. degree. I help people find their own path in running — from their first steps to preparing for a race.

I know that work, family and other commitments leave limited time. That is why I want every session to have a purpose and your plan to fit your everyday life.

Through KOLEM BĚHU, I bring together the things that matter in running: training, performance, recovery and the joy of movement.

We start with you, your circumstances and your experience.
I explain what we are doing and why.
We look for an approach you can sustain over time.
How we work together

The first step is simple.

01

We discuss where you are now.

How you run, what you want to change and how much time you have. You do not need a specific race goal — wanting to run regularly is a good starting point.

02

We find the right approach.

We choose a suitable service and agree the scope of our work together. A personal session, a consultation or a plan that suits your circumstances.

03

We put it into practice.

You receive practical recommendations and next steps. For ongoing coaching, we agree in advance how we will review and adapt your training.

You do not have to be fast to start. You just have to want to.

Everyone starts somewhere

Where are you
right now?

Choose the option that sounds most like you. I will help you explore the services and take your first step.

Start in a way that makes you want to come back.

We will find a manageable workload, discuss the basics and make room for consistency. A personal session can help you feel more confident as you start.

Good to know

Before we start.

Is coaching suitable for complete beginners?

Yes. You do not need race experience or an established routine. We start with your experience and circumstances, then choose the next steps accordingly.

Do I need a long-term training plan straight away?

Not always. A consultation may be enough for a specific question, while a personal session provides practical feedback. We agree the scope around what you need.

What should I prepare for an initial consultation?

Think about how often you run, what you would like to change and how much time you can devote to training. Sports watch data or training records can also help.

Do I have to take a lactate test?

No. It is a separate service that can inform training intensities. We discuss whether it is useful for your preparation based on your experience and goals. Details of the test and preparation are provided when arranging it.

How do I enquire, and where do sessions take place?

Choose a service and email your enquiry to marekoliva@gmail.com. Personal sessions take place at Letná, Divoká Šárka, Ladronka, Stromovka and Kotlářka athletics stadium. We confirm the time and meeting point by email. The location of lactate testing is arranged separately.
