Online Running Coaching
Conquer your next PB.
Train with Intelligence.
Keen to make progress as a recreational runner?
Don’t want to trash your body and devote your whole life to training?
Tim Karajas (BSc Physiotherapy) is uniquely positioned to coach you to your personal running goals with an intelligent program
Why?
With expert knowledge in health, injury management, biomechanics and physiology, Tim can guide your training to improve your fitness without excessive fatigue, soreness or injury risk.
A busy father and small business owner himself, Tim knows how to get the most from limited training time.
What do we offer?
Our running coaching service mixes the best of in-person and online.
Your training program is delivered via Final Surge, which integrates seamlessly with your GPS running watch.
Comprehensive data from your sessions is captured via Final Surge for review by coach Tim.
All of your sessions are tailored to your life:
- your unique goals
- your current fitness
- your strengths and weaknesses
- your personal constraints (time, energy, injuries etc)
- your preferences (training should be fun and make your life better…)
If you need or want in-person assistance (e.g. for technique input), we offer that from Raw Fit Co Gym at 49 Gladstone St, Perth.

What do our clients say?
“I started off with Tim a while back with him taking a look at my running form after having some issues.
Tim has programmed for me a custom program which incorporates both gym and running workouts which are both engaging and challenging.
He seeks feedback each month to ensure they don’t become stale and is constantly checking in on my progress.
Throughout this time my strength and fitness both in my day to day life and playing social hockey on weekends has improved massively.
I cannot recommend Extension Fitness enough for someone that wants that personal connection.”
Jon Richards (40-something Dad working towards faster fun runs and better hockey fitness using a customised running plan)
