I need a post collegiate coach

Where are you living now? What events do you run? PR's? Goals? We are just starting up a post collegiate program in Washington State and have 3 very knowledgeable coaches (two have coached Olympic trials qualifiers).

Email me:

If you don't mind running with a boot up your ass, I believe Matt Centrowitz has a group of post grads. Everyone says he is a good coach.

boot up ass? Centrowitz only wants runners who are self motivated who don't need the boot, but accept the only occasional gentle kick...get real poster, you're a 16 min 5k guy at best keeping weight down just waiting for the turkey trots

The words gentle and Centro have never been used in the same sentence. Congrats.

if you would share your event, PR's and location that would help

you could send me an email

The post collegiate program will be based in Bellingham, WA. My office is in Ferndale. Our Club and its practices are open to everyone. We will probably be having our Junior Olympic team on the same site (at times) as the Olympic Development program practices so everyone is good enough. The only difference would be the benefits.

If you have anymore questions, or want any info please email me at

My PR's are 800- 1:54, Mile- 4:12, 3k- 8:30, 5k- 15:01, 10k- 31:18....

I would like to start focusing on 10k-Half Marathon training for the time being and then eventually in a year or so move up to the Marathon...I am currently located in Ohio...I realize I am not great...not a world beater but I'd like to get back in the shape I once was about 3 years ago and I just need some guidance...

Where are you located in Ohio if you don't mind disclosing that info?

I know a lot of people in the state the train still after college. Possibly you are close to them and you could hook up. If not I would be willing to share my thoughts on training with you.

Check out teamgoodriver.com and the forum on there. You might get some help or ideas of what to do from there.

there's a guy, glenn mccarthy that posts on here, he coaches anyone who wants to be coached, i give him 2 thumbs up
