Cant find it on google wrote:
His school can’t accomplish this. Needs a coach and a team to train with at least over the summer. Any ideas?
I’d pay for the coach and the training partners.

I’m Not a troll . I agree with your 410 is equivalent to 1430 assessment. Even mid D1 schools say 410 to be recruited and I know those high school milers aren’t doing 1430. Either way, I imagine that this is a common problem without a great solution: there’s a kid who’s committed, doing 60 mile weeks on his own, not a great training squad or support around, ran 449 freshman mile, low 17’s Xc off 30 mile weeks. I know 410 is tough but he’s willing to work the next 2.5 years to get close. What are his options? Other schools won’t train him. I’ve found that Finding a coach is easier than finding training partners.
In other words there must be a way to train a committed talented kid who doesn’t have the right situation. Especially if we can pay. I just can’t find it.
If you're not a troll you're an awful pushy overcontrolling parent.

I have no dog in this fight... but how is a parent asking what is the best path to helping his son achieve his dreams a controlling parent and pushy? Sounds like a loving father who wants to help his son excel at something he is taking very seriously. People have a strange sense off bad parenting in this world. If my son asked the same I would move mountains to get him what he needed. That's what good parents do for their children. Provide the best you can afford while making sure they understand the financial commitment and seriousness off whatever it is you're doing. Whether it is paying for school, private coaching, horseback lessons, travel baseball or hockey, etc. Keep the kid humble and facilitate their dreams. What a bad guy the OP is for doing that. Geez. Scumbag.
