Coach Carlos
Founder, Editor-in-Chief
Amateur runner, passionate about running for many years. I started like most people — knowing nothing about pace, effort zones or periodization — and learned the science of training through trial and error, reading books by Jack Daniels, Pete Pfitzinger and Steve Magness, and speaking with coaches and physiotherapists.
In parallel, I have always worked with technology and followed closely the evolution of artificial intelligence. When I realised how well modern AI models can personalise recommendations from real data — pace, distance, heart rate, perceived effort — it made total sense to bring the two worlds together.
RunningWithAI is the result of that combination: a site that blends what is known about training science with modern periodization algorithms, to give any runner an accessible "digital coach." Every blog post passes through my hands — I research it, write it, review it and update it — based on the best sources I can find.
