Week 2 of the 3rd Dargavel Village Couch to 5km got underway last night, the first of three sessions I hold each week, for the duration of the 9 week programme.
A group setting, where they can support each other through each run, with me on hand to offer advice and my experience to help too. I don’t just tell you the session and leave you to it, I’m with you every step of the way, not just on session days (any questions worries and apprehensions can be directed through WhatsApp to me 7 days a week).
This programme is already underway and the group are on their way to running a full 5km by Xmas, but if you want to join my next group in the new year get in touch to be put on the list.

Colin knows!!!

Myth: Deep tissue must hurt to work.🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
Good therapy = pressure with purpose, not punishment. Pain isn’t proof it’s working. Purposeful pressure beats punishment. I want you to feel better from your massage definitely not in pain

Hi I’m Marc and I own MJB Run Coaching & Sports Massage Therapy
I provide tailored Sports massage and Run coaching plans to suit each individuals needs.
Sports massage is not just for athletes/runners/sports people. If you’re feeling aches and pains due to a busy everyday life I can help.

I am a UESCA certified running coach, with over a decades worth of running experience (3km up to ultramarathon), I also represented Scotland in the Backyard ultra 4 nations championships in July 2025, helping Scotland retain the title.
I have worked with beginners who are literally just starting out, people who wanted to tackle their first ultramarathon and every distance in between. My approach centres on smart training and also smart recovery to ensure you get the most out of every step.
Located in Dargavel Village means I’m a coach with a face rather than just on the end of a phone or behind a computer screen.
