I need a coach - My PRs are 4:04/8:02/13:47/28:52

How old are you? What are your goals?

Any interest in keeping it on the ‘Crete and giving the ‘thon a go?

if it goes well online, my e-mail is on the left

I should have probably stated that in my first post. I am 26 years old. I think ideally I would like to focus more 1500-5000m this year with an aim of being more 5/10 in the next couple before moving to the roads. I really enjoy track racing and think that there is a lot of room for me to improve, especially with my 15/mile as I mainly ran those as low key openers in big training phases.

We are about the same age, but I stopped running competitively after only a couple years in college, and have been coaching for the past few years.

Honestly, take a look at this link and this will get you 95% of the way there. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

I coach a few people remotely. I coached at Duke for 4 years, the last year of which I coached the men as well. PB's of athletes I've coached, for men: 1:50 800m, 3:43 1500m, 8:32 3k steeple, 14:03 5k, 29:21; for women: 2:05 800m, 4:41 mile, 9:14 3k, 15:55 5k, 33:25 10k. You can email me at danielcgoetz@gmail.com. Also, I've worked with post collegiates who have competed at the Olympic Trials and US Champs

The last 5 years:

I have coached 102 All-Americans at the Division II level including three individual national champions for the 3k and 5k. Coached two athletes to three DII records. Celine Ritter indoor 3k 9:11, Christian Noble indoor 3k 7:51, Christian Noble indoor 5k 13:37.

This indoor season I have had two milers go 3:59.70 and 4:01. Also coached Carson Bix to 13:56 5k and 8:02 3k this indoor season.

I have had two men run 1:48 and 1:50 in the 800m the last couple of years.

In steeplechase I had two men run 8:35 and 8:49 last season.

Would be able work off or your current training and build into similar workouts I have this current group doing. I charge $150 a month with unlimited calls and texts. Also provide strength training and nutrition/supplement advice.

I’m happy to help. So you have an idea of who I am and my Coaching Philosophy/background, take a look at my YouTube channel Top of the Line Running. 2 decades plus experience working with MD-Distance runners.

The coach Lyle Weese at Montana State has had success with getting runners under 4 min mile and steeple success as well. He works with post collegiate.

Where do you live or want to live? Do you want in person coaching or just online?

I'm a post college runner looking for a coach so would appreciate some advice. I am a 5-10k runner with PR times of:

Mile- 4:04

3k- 8:02

5k- 13:47

10k- 28:52

I have been averaging around 85-95 mpw recently and coaching myself. I feel like I could do with some more guidance with regards to my training but I am in that awkward area of not being good enough to go pro, but having some more to give in the sport. I would be unable to relocate for coaching, so it would have to be remote.

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to look for coaching? Thanks

Well,.....with that quite good PB`s it`s easy for me to coach you online to become a pro runner.I do it for free if you are interested.Check my "CV" here and send a message if interested......welcome to magic world class coaching by Coach J.S . :)

email;

Ha!

Check JS's resume here and run for your life!

On a serious note, I hope poster "coahc" posts here and leaves his contact., OP.

You should look into Keith Brown. He coaches Spencer Brown (The athlete special) who is in a very similar situation to you, and his having a lot of success getting coached by his dad. Apparently Keith is open to coaching other people, and is someone who has had success coaching people at your level.

Yes, all that success of...a few workouts any 3:45 runner could do.

To OP; cmosub4 is easily the most qualified coach in this thread, but if you are looking for merely suggestions, I would say reach out to the nearest elite club (something like Empire Elite, HOKA Aggies, etc.), they are usually open to developmental prospects joining, and you will get better coaching there than 99% of people on LetsRun.

Highly recommend reaching out Tim Goldsack at RunCCG

tim@runccg.com

Check with Joe Rubio at Running warehouse (semi referenced by lap3). Joe is an excellent coach and can also help with sponsorship

I would definitely check out Mr JS. The other guys can make you good, he can potentially make you great (or really bad depending on how it goes).

I could coach you. I have helped coach many pros, including an Olympic gold-medalist, another person who was 4th at the Olympics, and another person who was a world-champion. I have also coached an NCAA championship-winning XC team, multiple other teams that finished on the podium at NCAAs in cross and track, dozens of All-Americans and conference record-holders in every event from 800 through 10k, including the steeple. I was also one of two finalists to coach a pro running team a few years ago when they were looking for a new coach, however they chose a former runner from the team. I have been coaching other post-collegiates since 2010 with success in the marathon. If you want more details or to get in touch with some of my current or former athletes, contact me at coach (at) elitecoach.mozmail.com
