Accessible & affordable training for runners of all levels

Guiding you in running towards your dreams

Hi, This is Nazrul.

I’m a Bengali-speaking certified running coach based in Singapore. I’ve earned certifications as a Running Coach from the International Sports Science Association (ISSA) in 2024. My running journey includes proudly representing Bangladesh in the Asia Masters Athletics Championships 2023, securing top positions in both the 10km Road Run and 5000m events.

I founded NRA last year with a passionate team of certified coaches and trainers dedicated to helping runners of all levels reach their full potential with structured programs and training modules. We offer accessible and affordable coaching for everyone—from seasoned sprinters and semi-pro marathoners to those just lacing up their shoes for the first time.

Ready to elevate your running game and become a champ? Reach out to us today, and let’s start the journey together!
