Dr. Sean Radford
Founder & CEO, TrainAsONE
I didn't start TrainAsONE to build a 'fitness app.' I started it because I was a frustrated runner. Like many of you, I spent years following rigid, static training plans. I’d hit a 'load spike,' get a niggle in my Achilles, try to 'run through it' to stick to the calendar, and end up sidelined for months.
As a doctor and software engineer with a background in artificial intelligence, I knew there had to be a better way to use the GPS and heart rate data we were already collecting. The traditional plans I researched lacked scientific evidence, had a high failure rate, and often contributed to injury. I wanted a system that was smart enough to know when I was tired, flexible enough to handle life's unpredictabilities, and scientific enough to get me to a marathon start line in peak condition.
That was the birth of TrainAsONE.
