Here's what some of Barrie's clients have said recently about working with him...

"I went from no running at all, to running 5k in 37 mins after 12 weeks!"

- Sofie B

"I joined BE Fit Coach with Barrie in January to get back into running after having to stop 10 years ago due to medical reasons. The beginners group was great from start to finish! Gradual introduction back into running, with strength training included, fab warm ups and stretches afterwards. I went from no running at all, to running 5k in 37 mins after 12 weeks!"

"Highly recommend."
