from 4401 reviewsThis shirt is really nice. One of the most comfortable running shirts I've used and no doubt will be purchasing more. The pattern and color are great as well

Twinning with my hubby! Love the material, the vibrant colors, fast delivery and best of all, a personal note from Ben and Team! Wish you could bring back the color that's featured on Sarah (?) on the Women's Tee. Keep getting it done! 💪

Loving this program! It keeps me motivated and helps me plan out every run

Lovely birthday tee shirt, black edition mens.
As always great fit, excellent quality and great service from Ben and Sarah, love the personal touch with the hand written card. My 2nd purchase, more to come I suspect 😂.

Very happy with this product very comfortable and the fit is very good. 10 out of 10.
Product arrived quickly aswell.

This top is well sized and very comfortable. Ive been doing 45 minute runs and it’s not caused any irritation like some of my others. I definitely recommend this top.
Thanks.

Just started using The Plan this week and looks like a tough, fun 15week party! I really like to added notes to each week, sums up the key point and what to look forward to! I am more than sure that this will on my way to a PB and would highly recommend anyone to go and chase The Dream! 🖤

I bought this for the Manchester marathon, 2025. it arrived quickly, I love it, I've just tried it on, it's my 1st marathon, I'll definitely look the part, (well at the beginning anyway), I'm happy to buy bens
Running gear, he has helped me no end just from you tube tutorials.

T-shirts fit really well and don’t shrink in the wash. Love the slightly longer back so they don’t ride up with while wearing a running vest. Got 5 of these now and don’t go with any other brands

Took my new cap out for it's first run today, it's perfect. I needed a cap to tame my unkept hair and fit my melon head. The cap was easy to adjust to fit and has a neat slot to stop the straps flapping about. It's also very comfortable. Looking forward to wearing it at the Lancaster 10K this weekend and the Blackpool Half the following Sunday. Thanks Ben

Ran my first 50k trail after using the L1 plan under 5:30. The whole thing went great I felt more than prepared. Would highly recommend 🙂

So easy to follow, has everything you need…. helping me keep focus on my plan for my first HM! wouldn’t go anywhere else

Fun style, good material for a hat that you will sweat in !

Ben’s plan takes all the difficulty out of planning your training for a marathon by guiding you on what distance to run, when to run and what speed. All you have to do is turn up. Great for both novice and experienced runners.
